Last weekend seen a number of our members out competing at non-AIRC events. On Sunday, Lynne, Lydia and Lauren took part in the North Coast Riding Club’s Dressage Day at Eglinton Equestrian Centre. A fantastic day out held by a neighbouring NI Riding Club which was open to everyone. The classes ranged from Intro level (walk trot), right up to Novice and Elementary. They plan to run a Dressage league in the next few months, I will keep you all updated.

Lauren & ‘Kimberley’ took 3rd Place in the Prelim 18 Class.
