EVENT rider Michael Ryan has no doubt it is his fiancée Patricia Donegan who will carry the flag for the pair in next week’s World Cup qualifier at the Irish Horse Board Ballindenisk International Horse Trials in Cork.

TOMMY WADE yesterday said he had no intention of resigning as Chef d’Equipe to the Irish show jumping team, despite a vote of no confidence in him and the international selectors committee at the Show Jumping Association of Ireland AGM on Tuesday.

THE decision not to send a showjumping team to the cash-rich Spruce Meadows show in Calgary next week was based on the desire to do well at the World Equestrian Games, according to Peter Charles.
