Longines Royal International Horse Show 2023

Justin Widdowson (the proud owner of our family run business TotalWM) continue his family's close relationship with British Showjumping, by sponsoring this year’s Longines Global Champions Tour.

Justin’s dad – Gary Widdowson is the owner of the legendary horse, Big Star, ridden by his good friend, olympian Nick Skelton. The pair famously won a Team Gold Medal at the London 2012 Olympics, and Individual Gold at the Rio 2016 Olympics.

At the event, Justin's eight-year old daughter, Annabel, made everybody incredibly proud by winning Hickstead's Pro Ponies UK British Showjumping Winter 128cms Championship.

And she also has her eyes on the much-loved Big Star...

“She’s met him and is always asking her grandfather for videos of him and asking how he is getting on at stud. She’s so interested in everything, it’s lovely,” said Annabel’s mother, Kathleen.

“She has aspirations that one day she’ll have a Big Star foal for her future horse.”

So a bright, exciting future awaits for the Widdowson family in the world of horses and metal recycling innovation alike – watch this space!
