With the new Super League underway the top six in each class also won valuable points, as at the end of 2016, in each class from 60cm through to 1.10cm, a perpetual trophy will be awarded to rider and horse combination with the most points.

The many spectators were treated to great displays of showjumping as the competitors had to be both careful and speedy to negotiate Raymond Caldwell’s challenging courses! RD Equestrian had also kindly sponsored the Turnout prizes for the final, so this was an added bonus for the riders and grooms.

For the second time in 2016, the winner of the 60cm was Tiana-Grace Abbott riding her lovely pony, Henry. Zara-Jane Kelly picked up the red ribbon in the 70cm class riding the very talented Zack. She also picked up second place with Robin.

Another very talented rider, Freya Sayle won the 80cm class on Monty and the 90cm class on the spectacular Fenaghbeg Ever.

The 1m class was won by Joan Maxwell riding Roxy. Danielle McLaughlin and Santa Mear took the top spot in the 1.10 class to round off a very entertaining evening of jumping.
