ALANNAH Kelly has had plenty to celebrate lately, as her win in the DAFM Studbook Series EI110 final for six-year-olds at Kilguilkey House last weekend came shortly after she attended her graduation ceremony from UCD. Now armed with a degree in Equine Science, she is looking for a job!

Despite lowering a fence show jumping, Kelly led throughout on her own and her mother Caroline’s Irish Sport Horse gelding Cooley Capri Sun who, clear within the time across the country, completed on a penalty score of 26.9. Lying second after the flatwork phase, Clare Abbott wasn’t able to take advantage of Kelly’s show jumping mishap, as she too had a fence down to complete on 27.5 with Marshall and Sarah Riley’s ISH gelding Kilcoltrim Cooley.
