Summer Show spectacle at Laurel View
Perhaps the 13th of September was too early to have the Laurel View End of Summer Show, especially as we hadn’t had much of a summer, but none the less competitors came from all over the province to take, making all the preparation and work worthwhile. Even better still the sun came out to play and stayed for most of the day. Loads of shiny trophies and frilly rosettes were presented to the many worthy winners.
Working Hunter red ribbons were awarded by judge Violet Jackson to Judith Templeton and Winnie; Amy Nevins and Diamond; Rachael Ferguson and Jack Daniels; Lauren Hill and Lemon; Sarah Sproule and Maya with Simon Wylie and Schumi claiming the last working hunter win of the day.
Meanwhile in the Show Jumping arena Geraldine Lowry had been officiating, with the top spots scored by Abbi Gill and Dusk; Samantha Billing and Thor; Rebecca Gillen and Martini; Samantha Billing and Sammy; Kerry Gilmore and Shannon; Shauna McVeigh and Apache Dove plus Edana Butler and Bella.
Proprietor Robert Davis had put together the obstacle course. He found Grace-Ann Elliott and Magerbans Star Gazer; Cora McNulty and Pippa; Lexy Dawson and Alfie Moon, as well as Grace Murray and Holiday Candlelight to be more than up to his challenge.
Amy Neill and Kirsty Marsden were tasked with judging the showing classes between them. First up were the coloured classes with the first place rosettes going to Katie Scott on Slemish Young Glory and Vicky Marsden on Lily. The Young Warrior Coloured Championship was awarded fittingly to Slemish Young Glory, the progeny of Young Warrior.
First place rosettes also went home with Darryl McKinney and Ballylinn Ben; Jennifer Christie and Winnie; Amy Tubman and Jananda My Valentine; Charlotte McAllister and Timmy and last but by no means least to Sam Jackson and Jack.
After such a wonderful End of Summer Show captured in colour by the Equi-Tog photographer we are already looking forward to the next show at Laurel View, which will be the Halloween Show on Sunday 25th October. Check out fun and hopefully not to spooky schedule on www.laurelview.co.uk
