Equestrian

Equestrian is a very popular spectacle at the annual show. The Army team used to feature on a regular basis down the years. In fact, the winning Aga Khan Nations Cup team jumped here in the sixties. The Royal Blues Showband also sponsored a 14-hands pony event, with the highest prize money in Europe at the time. Cameron Hanley, a member of our Nations Cup team started out his career here before setting of on what became a very successful career and business in Germany. Many others have also started their careers here.
Unfortunately this event is affected by weather conditions which sometimes curtails the number of events.
Pat Prendergast, Jane & Tommy Gibbons, and Maud Henry work hard in organising this section.
