Flexi Eventing Competitors Brave The Storm
There was another huge turn out at The Meadows for week 2 of The Flexi Eventing. Unfortunately the weather was very mixed and some of the riders had to brave heavy rain and winds. However, spirits were good and standards were high across the board in all disciplines.
Ardnacashel’s Janice Reddy took the Intro dressage honours this week aboard La Petite Al Azan, finishing just ahead of Maya Boyle who occupied the same position last week on Topaz.
Anna Kelly is showing great consistency in the Pre Novice section where she topped the standings with Arnie, half a point clear of David Wightman and Cooper.
Meantime, Jemma Parkhill trotted to victory in the Novice class with Louie , completing with a 5 point margin over Elaine O’Connor and Tullymurry Holly- another combination showing great consistency over the past two weeks.
The showjumping arena got underway ahead of schedule and continued unabated until mid afternoon with the cross country running in tandem. Over 120 horses jumped in total with many also enjoying the schooling opportunity of the cross country course.
The series, which is open to everyone, continues every Saturday until the end of February.
Dressage must be pre-entered with Dora on 07876758979 or dorabeacom@live.co.uk by 6pm on the Wednesday of each week. Showjumping and cross country entries are taken on the day.
