Plaudits aplenty

RIDERS ran out of superlatives to describe the inaugural four-star Liverpool Horse Show. Nina Barbour and her team certainly spared no effort or expense to make sure the show ticked every box and many of the riders competing at this first running were understandably keen to book a return visit next year. Grand Prix winner Billy Twomey commented: “The organisers of this show deserve a serious amount of credit. The arena has been nearly full every day. To get a show kicked off in the first year and have big crowds is really impressive.”
