Clinton Jack Takes Victory in Third Leg of ISH Series at Cavan
SHANE McFadden and Clinton Jack took victory in the Seven Year-Old Final at Cavan today (Sunday) during the third leg of the Irish Sport Horse (ISH) Studbook Show Jumping Series.
A total of 25 horses started in the 5 year old final, 22 in the 6 year old class and 20 in the 7 year old final.
In the 5 year old final, there were 18 clears in the first round, with seven of them eventually jumping double clear to share the prize fund. The 6 year old final saw 12 clear jumping rounds on the first attempt with 6 double clears ultimately sharing the spoils.
The 7 year old course proved challenging today with just five clear in the first round and through to the jump off.
First into the ring was Greg Broderick on the Harlequin du Carel (SF) mare TVS Carisma (ISH) and set the time at a super-fast 37.96 but unfortunately left a fence on the floor. Just two double clears were produced, the first from Shane McFadden aboard the bay stallion Clinton Jack (ISH) in a time of 40.89. Last to go was Mary Ellen Rice on Lady Georgina Forbes’s Castleforbes Sidony (ISH) adding five seconds to McFadden’s time to ultimately take second place.
