Spring / Summer Season Drawing to a Close at Ravensdale Lodge

Week ending 12th July, results and report Ravensdale Lodge Equestrian & Event Centre.

With the weeks flying by, the countdown is on to the RDS Dublin Horse Show which signals the end of Ravensdale Lodge’s spring / summer show season which commenced the last week of April. Quite a bit has gone on at the centre over those fourteen weeks with leagues for SJI registered horses & ponies, horse & pony training as well as Arena eventing taking place. Throw into the mix five qualifiers for the RDS Dublin Horse Show, three day National Grand Prix weekend, numerous “Bumper” shows as well as a Mini Grand Prix show in early July and you have a recipe for happy competitors and tired show organisers! While one season may be drawing to a close, show organisers, tired or not are putting the finishing touches to the short six week summer / autumn schedule which will run at the centre from early August to the end of September when everything moves indoors once again for the closing season of the year. Full details of this forthcoming summer / autumn schedule which will include the usual leagues and some surprises will appear in these pages next week.  In the meantime competitions continue as normal over the coming weeks with SJI registered leagues for horses and ponies on Wednesday from 11am for the six modified horse classes from 80cm to 1.30m and followed by the usual modified 128cm, 138cm & 148cm pony classes at 5.30pm. There is a slight change in dates for the three remaining weeks of this league with the day changing to Thursday on Thursday 23rd July due to National Balmoral Show. Horse & pony training league continues every Friday to 31st July with the usual classes from X poles to 1.10m taking place from 5.30pm. Arena eventing continues on Saturday afternoon to Saturday 1st August from 2pm for the 70cm class, 3pm for the 85cm class and 4pm for the 1m class. Ravensdale Lodge hosted another exciting, action packed “Bumper” Bank Holiday Show on Sunday 12th July and results of this and all other weekly shows can be found in the results section below.
