Talented Plymouth College athlete, Harriet Mitchell, 12 from Liskeard, has helped the South West Tetrathlon team to win a silver medal at the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

The prestigious show is the largest outdoor equestrian event in the UK, with over 3000 horses and ponies taking part in more than 250 jumping, showing, and  carriage driving classes. The event has been running for over 65 years and takes place in Her Majesty The Queen's private grounds at Windsor Castle.

Harriet, who is a member of East Cornwall Hunt Pony Club, secured her place on the regional team after winning the 15/16 South West area Pony Club Tetrathlon winter league series.  A shoot, run, swim and ride event, Harriet did the show jumping part at Windsor on her pony, Master Juno.

No stranger to multi-eventing success, Harriet was the 2010 runner up in her age group at the British Pentathlon Championships and is the current South East Pentathlon Champion.

"It was amazing just to be there and compete", said Harriet.  "To win a silver medal was a huge bonus and I'm absolutely delighted."
