Children's rider Roser Serrano Pons, junior rider Moises Segui Pons and young rider Concha Navarro Torrens became the grand champion and titleists of the 2016 Spanish Youth Riders Championships held this year in Valencia, Spain, on 1 - 4 September 2016. The Nationals in Valencia did not include a pony division but had a special children's category for 9 to 12 year olds either on ponies or horses (?).
The official FEI children's division for 12 to 14 year olds on ponies or horses was won by Roser Serrano Pons on his 17-year old Sander. The pair won the first round, the team test with 69.500%. In the second round, also the team test, they were second with 68.400. In the Kur they were third with 69.875% but they finished first with an overall average of 69.258%. The silver medal went to Clara Campasol Trafach on Denver while Ainhoa Vera Arias and Mosquetero VIII got the bronze.
At junior riders level Spanish team member Moises Segui Pons and his 9-year old Westfalian Fandango (by Flamur out of Pretty Girl) topped the board after placing second in the team test (69,270%), first in the individual (70.500%) and in the freestyle (71.700%). His score average was 70,490% and good for gold. Team mate Carla de la Fuente de Pablos and her 9-year old Hanoverian Fay (by Fidertanz out of Goethe's Hilde) got the silver while Elena Moncayola Pruja earned bronze on the 9-year old Spanish registered Onix.
At young riders level Concha Navarro Torrens and her 14-year old Hanoverian Dimero (by Dacaprio out of Espriva) claimed the national title with a score average of 69.843%. She finished second in the team test (67.421%) but then clearly won the individual (70.132%) and freestyle (71.975%) for gold. Sofia Pachon Macias and her 13-year old Rhinelander bred Dacapo (by De Niro out of Windspiel) finished with silver on an average of 68.614%, while María Igualador Petit and her 12-year old Oldenburg Red Diamond (by Rhodes Scholar out of Fairnis) got bronze with 68.501%.
