THERE was an Irish one-two at the three-star show in Leeuwarden in the Netherlands, when Eoin McMahon on CSF Ballsbridge won Saturday’s 1.45m Medium Tour Winning Round class, closely followed by Conan Wright on Le Grande in second.

Wright had a good show, as he placed fifth in the day’s Grand Prix Indoor Friesland with Mr Cornet de Regor and had also finished as runner-up in the 1.40m Small Tour class with Oliva P, having placed fifth in the equivalent class the day before.

In Herning, Denmark, Alanna Fagan rode Billy Hastings to win the 1.30m Baltic Cup CSIJ Big Tour class last Wednesday, while the pair came third in the equivalent class on Thursday. Cathal McKeon-Devaney and Nokio emulated this and won the 1.15m Baltic Cup CSIP Big Tour classes on both Wednesday and Thursday. Ciara Cash and Ruby-Lottie were among the winners in the 1.20m classes for five-year-olds on the same days, while Ted Fagan and Ballyfore Rosie were runners-up in the 1.25m FEI Jumping Ponies Warm-up class on Thursday.

In Gorla Minore in Italy, Kevin Thornton placed fifth in the three-star 1.50m Grand Prix with Ultra Leicht JPS, while Sven Hadley recorded the same placing in the two-star 1.45m Grand Prix at Dunkerque in France on board Elka de La Pomme.

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, James Chawke was runner-up in the two-star 1.45m Grand Prix at Woodside International in California, riding One Edition.
