Dungarvan show whets the appetite

A GREAT show of sport horses at Dungarvan last Thursday whetted the appetite for this week’s RDS Dublin Horse Show.

Willie Ryan from Grange produced the champion hunter and filly of the show. Remarkably, both are out of his mare, Weaver’s Robe. The two-year-old filly, Regal Robe, was well shown by Clodagh Connors, and his five-year-old gelding Dukey Robe, was beautifully produced by Rosemary Connors.

The overall young horse champion, Kilpatrick Imp, a three-year-old gelding that had travelled from Kildare, is owned by John Dolan.
