TUMBLERS CLUB WINNERS

December 30, 2024

Congratulations to Our Tumblers Club Winners!


A huge congratulations to Becki Stanley of the Cupid Stunts, who has been awarded the Tumblers Club prize for the most spectacular fall! Becki’s impressive cartwheel at the Grafton earned her a well-deserved bottle of Foxdenton Dutch Courage gin. Thanks to Paul Buddin Photography, we even have a great picture to commemorate the moment—certainly one for the album!


We also want to give a big shoutout to our runners-up:

  • Pip Gowenlock, for her determination and impressive effort to cling on before ultimately hitting the deck at the Cotswold.
  • Mark Cubberley of Gloucestershire Equine Vets, who put in a stellar performance by nearly completing the entire Grafton Intermediate course before parting company with his horse on the flat.


These moments remind us of the spirit and humor that make team chasing so unique, even when things don’t go quite as planned!


A Massive Thank You
To everyone who participated, supported, and shared their tumbles, we’re delighted to announce that the Tumblers Club has helped us raise nearly
£500 for Wallace & Gromit's Grand Appeal. Your generosity and sense of fun have made a real difference, supporting a truly fantastic cause.

Here’s to all our riders, whether you stayed in the saddle or took a dive—your good humor are what keep this sport so special. Cheers to many more adventures (and hopefully fewer tumbles) in the future!

The British Team Chasing leagues were hotly contested once again in 2025. Teams won points for their respective Premier Performance Open Leagu e and Stuart Nichols Waste Disposal Ltd Intermediate Leagu e at each event in the spring and autumn seasons. PREMIER PERFORMANCE OPEN LEAGUE Premier Performance Open League winners Team Ride Away I got their campaign off to a great start with wins at the Beaufort, Fernie and Worcestershire, adding on open victories at the Berkeley and Grafton to seal the title. They won the Open League Trophy, £300 prize money, goody bags from Premier Performance, and in recognition of the number or riders needed to run a team through the season, engraved glasses and winners’ rosettes were presented to Roddy Stanning, Susannah Stanning, Lisette Davies, Joe Stevenson and James Sheppard. The other podium places went to the wire, with runners’ up the Beaufort Boozers having been incredibly consistent, picking up points at eight of the year’s 12 events. Masterless Bitch Pack took third place with placings a plenty including runner-up slot at the Worcestershire and victory at the Cotswold. Also taking home cash prizes were Cupid Stunts , 4th, and Fox Grant Dot Com , 5th. STUART NICHOLS WASTE DISPOSAL INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE Eternal Optimists dominated the Stuart Nichols Waste Disposal Intermediate League , winning an impressive seven events with their bold and daring rounds. They were presented with the Tyson Trophy in memory of Stephen Clark and Roddy Stanning’s wonderful intermediate horse, £150 prize money and fantastic commemorative jackets while rosettes went to squad members Henry Chamberlain, Ed Chamberlain, Jade Lovell, Zack Mallalieu, Jess Powell and captain Simon Coady. Team Ride Away 4 took the runner-up slot, after a better autumn than spring season! More Boring Gorings showed the consistency that has kept them at the top of the sport for more than 40 years to take third, with team members that hail from as far afield as East Sussex and Wales. Prizes also went to Fox Grant Thrusters Too , 4th and Gloucestershire Equine Vets , 5th. It was a great celebration at the Cotswold which stood in at the last minute to host the presentation after the sad loss of our usual season climax at the Essex and Suffolk.  Thank you very much to our sponsors Premier Performance and Stuart Nichols Waste Disposal Ltd who made the series possible. The 2026 leagues start at the Bicester on Sunday 22nd March - see you there !
