Summer Showjumping Spectacular at Ecclesville
Winners of 138 Open Class, Erin Crawford and Roger; Christian Wilson and Penny; Simon Harron from ASDA, Enniskillen; Collum McCullagh, Ecclesville Centre
Ecclesville Centre in Fintona was a hive of activity from mid-morning until early evening on Sunday 4 August as both Pony and Horse riders competed for the terrific prize fund on offer at Ecclesville’s one day Summer Show.
ASDA, Enniskillen were the main sponsors of the Show, with support also from AJS Promotions, Omagh Sports Forum and Omagh Equestrian and Countrywear. The Show was a great success with over 150 competitors and the courses built by Ray Buchanan resulted in very exciting jump-offs.
Erin Crawford riding B2 and Rodger was the top Pony rider of the day, picking up first place rosettes in both the 128 and 138 Novice classes and also winning both her speed rounds to pick up the 128 and 138 Open classes!
Abigail Cuddy and Lady (drew first prize in Newcomer Horse Class) and Lisa Patterson representing Omagh Equestrian & Countrywear
The final class of the day, the Horse Open sponsored by AJS Promotions, was a great competition with 11 of the 27 starters making it through to the jump-off. Donegal rider, Simon Scott was on fine form and he flew round Ray Buchanan’s twisty jump-off course at a blistering pace to claim the red ribbon, just pushing Lynn Russell on Misty into a very close second place!
The organisers would like to thank the competitors for supporting the Show, to the Sponsors, to Ray Buchanan, Course Builder and to Anne Morris who assisted in the Judges Box.
