National Event

Monart (2) – 13th July 2014

Sadly entries were slightly down for this which is surprising given the usual popularity of the EI event at Monart Equestrian, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford. Thankfully it was a beautiful day to enjoy the facilities and competition.

The O/CNC2* had 12 entries which saw Steven Smith and Ringfort Valentino take first place, followed closely by Michael O’Toole riding the ever popular Greenfort Endeavour.

Michael O’Toole riding Shannondale Daly won the very well supported EI100 class, which had 42 entries. Sadly the course proved testing to some as there were several eliminations on course along with a handful of withdrawals.

 

Sadly there is no Eventing Ireland date in the calendar for 2015 which is a shame as its a much loved event, ran in superb facilities.
