Gransha Spring Show Results

News Desk | April 27, 2013

Some of Saturday’s champions – Laura Campbell, Evie McClurg, Cerys Howell and Jayne Moore.

A wonderful weekend of competitions was enjoyed by everyone who attended the Spring Show at Gransha last weekend. The weather was very kind at last and the decision to split the show over two days and stay in the all weather arenas was fully justified and appreciated. The footing was excellent in all three arenas and the newly painted fences gave the riders a pleasurable days jumping and riding.

Harold and Jenny Lusk, Rachel Kinnaird and Rebecca Horan had their work cut out for them finding the top horses among very strong fields on Saturday, but rose to the challenge as we knew they would and picked some beautiful winners and encouraged those farther down the line.
