Emma-Jo Slater reigns with Kings of Leon at Codham Park

Emma-Jo Slater outpaced all 41 of her rivals to top the Nupafeed Supplements discovery second round at Codham Park with Kings of Leon.

Fifteen reached the third and final jump-off and bid for a finalist place at the National Championships, Stoneleigh final, but Emma-Jo left it in no doubt of the winner. She used her late draw to forge ahead on Kim Barzilay’s eight-year-old to command the top spot by 3.60 sec.

And Emma-Jo also picked up third with Fielina II, a seven-year-old also owned by Kim Barzilay. The only rider to prevent a Barzilay/Slater whitewash, Michaela Huntington was sandwicked into second with the six-year-old Gina Trojka S.

Eight gained treble clears to qualify for the final.
