SLIGO’s Richard Howley put in a solid performance last Sunday to take sixth place in the CSI4* 1.55m Grand Prix at St. Tropez. Riding Chinook, he was first to finish his round in less than 40 seconds.

However, his hopes of a win in the feature class were dashed when the second fence in the jump-off fell to the floor and the combination crossed the line in 39.40 seconds.
