Having already achieved major success at the event, 15-year-old Battlesbridge schoolgirl Hanna Penny was out to claim glory in two more classes at the Horse of the Year Show.
Hanna won the highly sought after Squibb and Davies Junior Foxhunter Championship on Wednesday riding her mother Carol's pony Blue Amber in a thrilling contest.
On Friday she was battling for the Blue Chip Junior Novices Championship before competing for the top prize available to her on Sunday.
That's the Craiburg Leading Junior Showjumper of the Year and Hanna, a pupil at Great Baddow School, certainly wasn't out of the running for the top prize following her midweek success at the NEC Arena, Birmingham.
Hanna and Blue Amber jumped two superb clear rounds, beating their nearest rival, Lola Wade on Floating Change, by just over three quarters of a second.
Hanna had a time of 32.48 to collect prize money of £100, while Lola topped a list of three other riders with a double clear with 33.24.
The sponsors of the event she won, Squibb and Davies, are demolition contractors operating from East London and the Essex teenager was certainly knocking down all rivals in her search for big-time glory.
