British Eventing Champion Felicity Collins has been awarded a 12-month loan of a Suzuki Ozark 250 ATV after
becoming the new U21 National Champion at the Saracen Horse Feeds Houghton International trials earlier this year.
uzuki GB has been
supporting the
Horse Trials for
over 10 years, with
previous years’
prize ATVs being
awarded to Will Furlong and
William Fox-Pitt, following their
success in the competition. The
Horse Trials, held in Norfolk, are
internationally recognised in the
Eventing calendar, hosting over
700 horses and more than 350
international competitors.
Felicity, who first sat on a pony
S
at only 9 days old, is a well-
deserved winner. She commented
on her prize ATV, “I am really
excited to have won the ATV and
am looking forward to getting to
grips with it! We have a 20-year old
ATV already which was dying to be
replaced, so I am really looking
forward to riding the shiny new
Suzuki Ozark around the yard. We
are already planning on levelling
the school with it very soon.”
Felicity comes from a
successful Eventing family, with
her mother Vicky winning several

titles in the 90’s resulting in being
listed for the 1996 Atlanta
Olympics! The family now run a
large stable in East Sussex, which
is home to nearly ten Eventing
horses.
The prize handover took place
at Felicity’s family stables, which
not only houses Felicity’s winning
Horse RSH Contend’Or, but also
several other prize winners.
Suzuki GB’s Head of ATV,
George Cheeseman, added
“Congratulations to Felicity on
winning her event at the Houghton
International Horse Trials. The
equestrian industry is very
important to Suzuki, so we feel
very privileged to be able to
support both the Horse Trials, and
Felicity Collins. I’m glad to hear
that this prize ATV will be put to
good use and I’m looking forward
to catching up in a couple of
months to see how she’s getting
on with the Ozark 250. Felicity has
evidently put a tremendous
amount of time and dedication in
to her Eventing career and I wish
her the best of luck in the future.”
