Iveagh Branch of the Pony Club Enjoy Spooktacular Halloween Show
Iveagh Branch of the Pony Club held their Halloween Show at Moyallon on Saturday 1st November, generously sponsored by TRI Equestrian. There were show jumping classes for all, from cross poles to a very competitive 1.2M, There was also a top score Show Jumping Class which was won by Lucy Morton who earned herself a massive 500 points! The Family Pony Class proved very popular with a very spooky Halloween Course designed by Susan Roberts. The introduction of a Young Handler Class gave the children an opportunity to show their ponies in-hand.
The Fancy Dress was the major attraction of the day, with many fantastic costumes for riders and ponies. The overall prize going to Zara McConnell who was a very strict looking member of the Mounted Police! The Dog Show proved almost as competitive, with a wide array of little and large pampered pooches. Each and every dog was a winner in their own right, but Pippa the Cocker Spaniel belonging to Charlotte and Elizabeth McCracken caught the eye of the judge and took home the trophy.
Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make The Iveagh Halloween Show a success. Special thanks to our Sponsors TRI Equestrian for the fabulous prizes.
