In company with a companion, this wellknown and popular enthusiast rode her team through to the Marlborough centre, and this fact makes the awards obtained all the more meritorious. These awards were a first in trotting exhibition, second in best turn-out on the ground, and reserve champion harness horse. A second in dogcart horse and a third in roadster horse, also swells the list of the cards and ribbons that decorate the walls of Mrs Baigent’s Central Takaka residence.
