THE sole Dubarry Burghley young event horse qualifier staged in Ireland was held last Saturday on day one of the Tatteralls July Show where the judges were Andrew Fletcher (dressage), Eric Smiley (jumping), Alistair Pim (conformation and quality) and Vina Buller (suitability and potential).

The combined marks of the first three adjudicators determined which horses would appear before Buller in the Derby arena where, on the flat, she had between one and 10 marks to award “for potential international quality to make a world class three day event horse”.
