The opening day set the tone, with Charlotte Harding taking the win in the 80cm class aboard Heather Bagchus's ‘Red Cloud Warrior’. The 90cm saw a multi-way tie for first place, underscoring the depth of talent among the participants. The metre class also ended in a divide, showcasing the consistent quality of the competitors.
The 1.10m class was fiercely contested, with Taryn McClurkin claiming victory on ‘Innocense’, closely followed by an impressive lineup of skilled riders and horses. The higher stakes 1.20m and 1.30m classes were also hotly contested, with Ann Galvin’s ‘Tra Houston’, ridden by Lucy Morton, and Joanne Morton’s ‘Blueoak Legaland’, with Abby Morton in the saddle, taking the top spots respectively.
Saturday's competition was highlighted by the DAFM Studbook Series Qualifiers for five-, six- and seven-year-old horses. These classes not only showcased the promising young talent, but also served as a stepping stone to the finals.
In both the five-year-old and six-year-old qualifiers, the course design team whittled the 80-strong entry down to result in 40 going through to the grand finale on Sunday. Notably, Brian McConville's horses excelled, with a win in the seven-year-old qualifier with ‘BWE Vain Hero’, ridden by the Shane O'Reilly. O’Reilly also navigated ‘BWE Special Rose’ to third place in the qualifier to ensure that Ballyward Equestrian went double-handed into the final.
The Glenpatrick Horseboxes 1.30m Grand Prix was a spectacle of skill and precision, culminating in an exciting win for Keonan Stables Ltd's ‘Clovalent’, under Joshua Lynch's expert guidance.
The championships drew to a close on Sunday, with the DAFM Studbook Series Finals, where 20 combinations shared the spoils in the Five-Year-Old Final and 18 combinations divided the prize-fund in the six-year-old class. Brian McConville’s ‘BWE Special Rose’ took top honours in their seven-year-old age category, ‘BWE Vain Hero’ ridden by the Shane O'Reilly also claimed second place to take home the lion’s share of the €3,400 on offer from Horse Sport Ireland.
The prestigious GAIN/Alltech 1.40m National Grand Prix was a battle of the elite, with Kayleigh Soden’s ‘CBI Bella Donna’, ridden by Vincent Byrne, clinching the coveted first place. Byrne, who went doubled-handed into the jump off of nine, also placed seventh with Flaminia Straumann’s ‘Quantino’.
The MEC Amateur Championship celebrated the dedication of amateur riders, with Naomi McCavana emerging victorious on ‘Ferro Charm’.
