Festive theme at Knockagh View Christmas Show

From Jingle All The Way 30cm to Mulled Wine 90cm, there was a seasonal vibe at the rescheduled show at Greenisland

Knockagh View Equestrian Centre, Greenisland, ran their rescheduled Christmas Show on Saturday, December 28. There was a definite festive vibe at the show, with very appropriately named classes, which ran from the Jingle All The Way 30cm up to the Mulled Wine 90cm, as well as a Festive Obstacle class and a rather creative Fancy Dress class.
