This was a lovely class to watch as any one of the of the top ten finalist could have won - there was not much in it. To me the judges looked for that little bit extra in the workout. The riders were given every opportunity to show their ponies to best advantage. The ring had a wealth of talent and experience to ensure that the event ran well. Pictured right is Rosemary Metherall - a very experienced show identity, who acted as the steward in this ring. |

The 'red coats' do a wonderful
job escorting the show horses around the showgrounds. This hard working part of the team is Mandy Hugh from Kilmore and she deserves a medal for her tireless effort on this very hot day, when she would have been much more comfortable by the pool - well done Mandy and all of the 'red coats' |
