Well done to everyone who participated in todays 2nd leg of the Autumn League, and thank you to Inishowen Riding Club for running such a smooth event.
Due to the first outing of the Donegal Harriers in Porthall we seemed to be missing quite a few of our ‘usual suspects ‘ and it was left down to 6 members to do the club proud . Ruth & ‘Sioux Indian‘ had a lovely double clear & took 2nd place in the Primary class . Next up was Ryan and his young black cob ‘Calamity Jayne’, the new pairing had an unfortunate 3 poles down leaving them unplaced in the strong field of 11 competitors in the Advanced Primary Class. Liz & ‘Clyde‘ had an extremely unlucky last pole down leaving them in overall 4th place.
In the largest class of the day with 13 entries, Sisters Roseleen & Carla McGinley both jumped perfect clears in the Intermediate putting them both in to a 6 way jump off. Unfortunately Mickey & ‘Simply Mitch’ failed to make it into the jump off this week having lost their way after jump no.7 . Carla & ‘Action‘ delivered a faultless jump off in 37.83 seconds to claim 1st place, with sister Roseleen & ‘Lacoda‘ hot on their heels in a time of 37.92 seconds but with a very unlucky last pole down leaving them in overall 5th place – well done girls !!!
The next leg of the Autumn League will take place in 2 weeks time on Sunday 9th November & it will be our clubs turn to run this show so all help on the day will be gratefully received.
