Lara Edwards stormed to victory in the Advanced Medium Northern Regional Championships, just three months after giving birth to her second daughter, Emily.

Riding the phenomenally talented, Jazzed Up (Felix) the pair were crowned champions after breaking the 70% mark, to win with an impressive 71.23%, at Port Royal Equestrian.

Lara got back in the saddle just five weeks after Emily’s arrival to secure qualification to the Regionals, with the hard work paying off now a ticket to the Nationals is in the bag.

The win was not the only success of the weekend, as Lara and Felix, who she jointly owns with Tracy and Laura Milner, narrowly missing out on taking home the Prix St Georges Championship, finishing in second place.

As a brand ambassador for Alltech’s Lifeforce Range and new Forage Guard supplement, Lara is getting used to combining her competition commitments with life as a busy working mum of two.

Said Lara: “There is so much more to come from this superstar, he was so hot in the arena, meaning pirouettes just didn’t happen and his medium work was on half power to avoid any explosive 360 turns!

“I can’t wait for the Nationals in September when I know he will be back to full power following a couple more months of training which will including some more work on keeping him relaxed.

“A huge thank you to my whole team who have helped keep everything ticking over throughout my pregnancy and to Tracy and Laura for breeding such a ‘one in a million’ horse and then for trusting me to train him. We are all enjoying this journey together so much.”

The Lifeforce Range of all-natural, daily digestive aid supplements from Alltech are designed to benefit horses of every stage of life, from breeding stock to pleasure and performance animals.
