Di Lampard filled one notable gap in her show jumping career yesterday, when she rode Abbervail Dream to achieve her first victory in the Ladies' Championship at the Royal Windsor Horse Show, having been second four times.

After returning on Monday from La Baule, where Lampard was best of the British riders in the Grand Prix and Nations Cup, Abbervail Dream had two days rest before travelling here. The Irish-bred horse jumped two foot-perfect rounds to complete the only double clear. On current form, Lampard must have a secure place on the Great Britain team for September's World Equestrian Games.
