With around 3,000 entries for this weekend’s Owners Pony and Young Riders Charity Show, in Millstreet, Co Cork, organisers expect the total funding raised for good causes to top €280,000.

WITH Government expenditure under intense scrutiny, it comes as no surprise that the Army Equitation School has again featured on the radar.

EVENTING IRELAND (EI) chairman John Wright yesterday revealed that the organisation’s membership has dropped by almost 40% in just three years.

IT takes a lot of work and dedication to stage an event such as the Owners Pony and Young Riders Charity Show, but knowing it is appreciated makes all the difference.
