DUAL Paralympian Kate Kerr-Horan, who was guest of honour at the Shillelagh Pony Club’s 60th year celebration night on Friday, recorded a cross-grade double in two of the league classes at a show held by the North Munster region of Dressage Ireland last Sunday in Roscrea Equestrian Centre.

In front of Michael Moore (List 2A), Kerr-Horan topped the overall leaderboard in both the Preliminary DIP6 (72.50%) and the Novice DIN21 (72.76) with her own and her mother Pam’s Danish Warmblood gelding Lykkebo’s Don Akino, on whom she competed at Grade 3 level this summer in Paris. The nine-year-old bay is a son of Blue Hors Don Olymbrio out of a Michellino mare.

Ann Glynn also scored twice, but at Medium level, with the home-bred Irish Sport Horse mare Shanaclough Seattle, guiding her black Waldo van Dungen 12-year-old to win the four-runner league class (DI65) on 68.91 before seeing off one rival to claim the non-league DI77 on 64.

Moore’s other league winners were Bethany Mackey, who claimed the match for honours in the Advanced Medium DI90 on her nine-year-old Dutch Warmblood mare Kalahari (71.62), and Lucy Cusack, who recorded an uncontested success in the Advanced DI100 on Gavelle Ter Qwincke (64.29), a 13-year-old KWPN-registered mare.

The sole league class judged by Elena Satalkina (List 4) was the 14-runner Elementary DI55, where the comfortable winner on 70.36 was Melanie Mackey with the family’s Scottish Warmblood gelding Wagner V.U., a 21-year-old bay by Ludwig.
