Inter-Venue Tour Final at Connell Hill

| December 10, 2013

Saturday saw the final of this Inter-Venue Tour hosted at Connell Hill where competitors arrived to jump a course designed to provide smooth flowing jumping.  All riders turned out in full show attire with horses all groomed and well polished tack.

This most exciting day kicked off with the 70 cm class which saw Ciara Heron on ‘QT Blue’ take the first rug of the day as they won this first class.  Lynn Lowry on ‘My Mustang Sally’ jumped a superb double clear taking the honours of first place in the 80 cm class.  As the day moved forward Julie Blakley on ‘ Innishowen Clover’ took first placing in the 1.0 m class and 1.10 m class much to young Olivers’ delight cheering as Carrie Townsend, Equine Sports Therapy, presented the rugs.  Ending a most successful tour the last class of the day, the 1.20 m class, saw Carine Fullerton on ‘Sylvester’ pull out all the stops displaying a skilfully ridden double clear winning the last rug of the show.

The Co-ordinators of this Inter-Venue Tour would like to say a massive thank you to Carrie Townsend Equine Sports Therapy – Relax Relieve Revive who sponsored this final, Carrie sponsored rugs and Sports Therapy sessions.  We would also like to say a huge thank you to all venues who participated in this tour and their staff, all sponsors, competitors and grooms.

So watch out for the next tour on Face Book and the Farm Week, which is scheduled for early February, weather permitting, with classes 70 cm – 1.20 m.
