CROSSMOLINA’s Luke Corcoran became a rider to be reckoned with during this year’s Eventing Ireland Western Region Berts Properties starter series, which concluded on Easter Monday at the Milchem Equestrian Centre of regional chairman, Ralph Conroy.

Most obvious was the fact that the four horses and one pony Corcoran competed on finals’ day at the Tynagh venue all came off the River View Equestrian lorry wearing rugs won during the series, which were sponsored by Carter Anhold and Co Solicitors. The firm’s Donnacha Anhold, who was competing himself on Monday, missed out on a rug, while Corcoran was presented with another two following his wins in the four-year-old class and the six and seven-year-old class.
