Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) announces a change in its judging panel for the 2025 event.
Clare Dew has regrettably had to step down from her judging duties at this year’s show due to unforeseen health reasons.
We are pleased to confirm the following updates to the judging line-up:
- David Blair will now judge the Enablelink Ltd Lead Rein Pony of Hunter Type of the Year Championship and the show phase of the Thor Atkinson Steel Fabrications Ltd Junior Mountain & Moorland Ridden Small & Large Breed Pony of the Year.
- Dale Atkinson will take over judging responsibilities for the show phase of The Binks Family Partbred Pony of the Year Championship.
HOYS and the equestrian community extend best wishes and support to Clare and thank David and Dale for stepping in to ensure the continued excellence of the judging at HOYS.
