Happy 70th Birthday Lawrence Smyth.
Although we celebrated Lawrence’s birthday last Sunday night, today is actually his birthday.
He is at the Riding Club’s Festival in Stradbally, Co. Laois, where he was call-up steward for the Veteran Rider Show Jumping class yesterday. The only qualifying criteria for the class is that the rider must be 50 years of age! Lawrence is much too young for that. He will compete in the Advanced Primary Show Jumping class later today instead.
Good luck Lawrence and don’t go too fast!
Update: Lawrence had a fabulous round in the Advanced Primary Show Jumping class, but the last fence (no. 9 again!!!) got in the way. Well done anyway!
Trish won the Open ‘Take Your Own Line’ Show Jumping, Dressage to Music, came 4th in the Long Arena Dressage, and had the highest score of the day in the Team Dressage, winning it with Niamh Macken, Leonie Nolan and Sylvia Baumberger. Presentation photo
