Army Rider Clinches Portuguese Grand Prix

Irish rider Lt. Shane Carey today (Sunday) clinched the strong Army attack on the Vilamoura CSI with a less than one-second win over the Belgian show jumping star Stanny van Paesschen in the Vilamoura Grand Prix.

Riding the Army Equitation School's <Ballycumber>, Carey copper-fastened what had been a relentless campaign at the Portuguese show. Last week's Grand Prix at Vilamoura saw two Army riders (Carey and Capt. Gerry Flynn) finish in the Top Five, but today Carey took the top spot in a thrilling finish.
