Hughes Second At Bordeaux

IRELAND'S Marion Hughes moved up a few gears at the World Cup show in Bordeaux today (Saturday) with her best performance so far at this year's event.

Taking second place in the 1m40 Table A class this afternoon with the 13 yr-old Laughton's Flight mare <Heritage O'Jessie>, Hughes trounced some of Europe's best riders and horses with a clear round and a fast time that came in just under 1.5 seconds behind French winner Michel Robert on <Oylmpia>.

Hughes had earlier taken a sixth place at Bordeaux on <Galileo>, a tenth on <Heritage Spirit>, and yesterday a seventh on <O'Jessie>.

Much later tonight both Hughes and fellow Irish rider Dermott Lennon will try to gain vital World Cup points at the Bordeaux Grand Prix World Cup Class.
