British Dressage World Championship silver medallists Gareth Hughes and Richard Davison will work with Eventing World Champion and European team gold medallist Yasmin Ingham in the LeMieux Masterclass Series; 'Dressage Unwrapped' at London International Horse Show 2023
The Masterclass will take place in the New Horizon Plastics London Arena – a new arena being introduced at the 2023 Show – on Thursday 14 December and aims to provide both amateurs and experienced riders with Dressage tips and tricks that riders can put into practice at home.
The hour-long session will be co-presented by Dressage World Championship silver medallists Gareth Hughes and Richard Davison, who will work with both Yasmin, and the up-and-coming Dressage young rider, Ruby Hughes, daughter of Gareth.
British Olympic Dressage rider, Davison, is no stranger to the London International, having competed at the Show for over 20 years, a tenure during which he has represented Great Britain at multiple Championships, most recently at the 2022 FEI World Championships in Herning, where, alongside his co-host Hughes, he won a team silver medal. Hughes is also part of the British Dressage team heading to the 2023 FEI European Championships in Reisenbeck in September.
World Individual and European team Eventing Champion, Yasmin Ingham will be demonstrating the advised practices and is sure to provide a spectacle for the Show’s audience.
Yasmin will be joined in the arena by 16-year-old Ruby Hughes, who has had a successful year in international Young Rider classes, including recent team and individual victories at Hickstead. The former Vaulting competitor has made huge strides on the Dressage circuit in only her second year competing in Dressage internationally.
Together the quartet of Davison, Hughes, Ingham and Hughes will each bring unique qualities and experiences to the Masterclass to provide an insight into how they train and prepare for competition at the highest level.
