Gina Andrews rode her 200th point-to-point winner at Cottenham on Sunday, a rapid achievement given that she is still only 26.

She joins four other women to achieve that landmark, and needs just two winners to move ahead of Pip Jones and into fourth place behind Polly Gundry, Alison Dare and Polly Curling, who were all multiple champions.

Curling’s score of 220 is also within Andrews’ reach this
season, although the reigning champion has yet to get near the highest score in a season by a woman point-to-point rider. That remains at 40, and was set by Curling in 1995 when she
was number one rider at Richard Barber’s stable.
