LOSS of an hour’s sleep and Mother’s Day last Sunday, March 30th, didn’t deter the South East AIRC members from showing up to dance their way down those centre lines at the region’s league final, hosted by Barrow Valley Riding Club at Carrigbeg Riding Stables, by kind permission of Susan Patterson.

With the sun shining, the photographer Between the Ears Equine Videos and the first judge Liseanne Kearns in place, all was set for the RC P1 class to commence. The scores were tight at the top, with less than 0.2% percent separating the top two, as Shauna Meaney riding her horse Mooncon Star scored 68.75% to take the lead over Jacqueline Kellet-Bevan riding Macroney Sue to give the host club a first and second.
