Kernan Equestrian Centre BLUEGRASS Ulster Region Summer Tour 2014 Sunday August 17th 2014.

Kernan Equestrian Centre ran a very successful horse show on Sunday 17th August part of the BLUEGRASS Summer Tour 2014. With 160 entries it was a busy day with activities kicking off with the 90cm class which was won by Louise McEntaggart on her own Explorer Z.  Mark Mulrine on Charllon Chloe took the 1st prize in the 1m class and Louise Thompson on Kilronan Lass emerged victorious out of a field of fifty competitors to take  the red rosette in the 1.10m class finishing in a fast time of 30.66secs

The 1.20m class was won by regulars at Kernan Equestrian Centre  James Hogg and Indicator in a time of 29.39secs. 2nd place went to Isla Savage and Least Said (31.69secs) and 3rd place to Liam McGarry on Javas Heartbreaker (33.24secs).

The eagerly awaited main event of the day, the BLUEGRASS 1.35m £1,000 event attracted 32 entries.  Out of the eight combinations to go through to the jumpoff only three of these managed double clear rounds. One  of these was first in Sean Kavanagh on The Kingdom. Sean went clear in a time of 49.49secs but his time was soon bettered by host James Kernan and Premier Sport ‘s time of 44.34secs. Liam McGarry on local woman’s Judy Murphy’s Javas Georgie B  soon put paid to James hopes by producing another  lovely clear round in an excellent time of 41.37secs taking the coveted red rosette. Liam was also 4th on Judy’s Javas Heartbreaker. Both Liam McGarry and Sean Kavanagh appeared in the winner’s lineup  several times during the day. All agreed that international course designer Tom Holden’s tricky but excellent course produced the desired result.

The new SJI Horse & Pony League started on Saturday 16th August. Due to a large turnout of horses the start time for the Ponies has been put back to 2pm. The horses start time remains the same at 10am. This league continues every Saturday to the FINAL on Saturday 13th September.
