ON her first competitive trip abroad, show jumper Louise Carroll was delighted to win a 1.10m class in week one of the Costa del Sol Tour in Mijas, Spain but she didn’t have much time to celebrate her success.
Last Saturday, the Lusk amateur guided her 10-year-old Vancouver gelding Darrara Achilles to a near four-second victory in the two-phase competition, where fellow Irish rider Adrian Gilmartin finished third on Evolien, but she had to be up bright and breezy the following morning to catch a flight back to Dublin.
