LOCALLY based Rosie Alcorn and Gilford’s Steven Smith had four rides apiece last Saturday at the Jamison Landrover-sponsored Finvoy (2) where, in the two classes they went head-to-head, they finished first and second, splitting the honours.

Alcorn, who shared the veterinary surgeon duties at the Co Antrim event with Mick Costello, was the first to strike, narrowly landing the 11-runner EI110 when adding two cross-country time penalties to her winning dressage score on Centre Fold Belle for a total of 29.3. Smith completed on his first-phase score with Urneypark Big Cat (29.8) while, with 1.6 show jumping time penalties, Lucca Stubington finished third on Kiltown Watson (32.4).
