YOUNG rider Alex Finney collected an impressive win in Kernan’s last Sunday aboard the Belgian-bred L’Esprit Hero Z, taking first place in the 10th round of the TRM/Showjumpers Club 1.35m Spring Tour.

Normally ridden by Dermott Lennon, the 13-year-old gelding is owned by Eamon Bishop, is by Lexicon, out of Ikea Van’t Roosakker, by For Pleasure, and was bred by Gerry Marron and Luc Henry.
