MUCH like the rugby match on Saturday, Cork Summer Show was a game of two halves. The pony enthusiasts were met with a lovely summer’s day on Saturday until the rain clouds came in on Saturday evening and made themselves well and truly at home for the horse section on Saturday.

Saturday’s pony classes were well supported with six rings in full swing. In the ridden show hunter pony ring, judge Gill Glynn found her champion in Liam Ruttle’s Bronheulog Sunny Boy, who had taken the red rosette in the 133cm division.
