Dressage league final approaches at Ardnacashel

Competitors impress the judge at Comber centre

Sunday was the day for the fourth leg of the dressage league at Ardncashel Equestrian, Comber. With a slightly quieter day, the Dressage Arena was built up top and, thankfully, although cold, most of the competitors stayed dry.

A huge thank you is extended to judge for the day Ivor Harper and his trusted scribe, Stephen. Another thank you, as always, to Black Horse Photography for capturing all the action... Photographs can be found on their Facebook Page.
