Bertram Allen in the money in Hong Kong

Show jumpers Bertram Allen and Darragh Kenny were in the money at the weekend in Hong Kong and Florida, respectively.

Allen was making his debut in the Longines Masters in the Far East event and the Wexford native pocketed more than $100,000 for his efforts, his first big prize of $31,000 coming in Friday’s Hong Kong Jockey Club Trophy with Quiet Easy 4.

On Saturday, John Whitaker looked to have the Longines Speed Challenge wrapped up with a superb display on Lord of Arabia when seventh into the arena.
