IRISH PONY RIDERS FEATURE AT FRENCH EVENT

Irish pony riders gave more than a good account of themselves at the big International Show Jumping event in Courlans, France, last weekend.

A superb win on the opening day was complemented by Top Five placings throughout the event, and two of the riders (Ger O'Neill, Mark Beecher) who shone at Courlans will also represent Ireland at the Pavarotti International in Modena on June 7-10.
