Sisters have clean sweep with mare

SISTERS from Woodstown, Co Waterford, Rosemary and Claire Connors had a clean sweep in the ridden hunter classes at the 93rd Dungarvan Show.

Their bay mare, Woodfield Valerie, by Lucky Valier, a former young horse title winner at Dublin, took the ridden championship, with Claire in the saddle.

The same animal, this time ridden by Rosemary, won the working hunter championship, and Rosemary also won the four-year-old title on John Donahy’s striking chestnut gelding Clonehea Fame by Arthur’s Gold.
