A PONY who was thought to have been crippled with arthritis has recorded a second national triumph for a mother and daughter team from Over Wallop.

Tommie Badham has recently ridden Paddock Scallywag to become the reserve novice equitation champion.

And eight years ago her mother Trisha was third in the same national competition held annually in Buckinghamshire.

Paddock Scallywag's first national appearance was 11 years ago.

He was sold twice after that triumph before being given back to the family when suffering health problems.

They have since nursed him back to full fitness.
