The competition started to hot up in the 1.10m class with Margaret Fullerton’s good time of 33.40secs on the James Kernan owned Vinday giving her the red rosette. Margaret just pipped Jessica Finnegan on Tommie Girl at the post by knocking just a tenth of a second off Jessica’s time. Third place went to Aoife Dooley on Judy Murphy’s Tullyoran Magic finishing on a time of 33.66secs.

The 1.20m class saw Holly Latimer, second last to go stealing the top place on
