FOLLOWING the rains of last weekend, the sun was a welcome visitor to riders at The Meadows Equestrian Centre, Lurgan, last Saturday.

Riders attended the continued SJI horse series with riders from all over the province travelling to the venue. Although it was Mother’s Day on the Sunday, it did not deter the determined pony riders and the parents from attending the first leg of the 2017 Ulster Region Pony Spring Tour, sponsored once again by TRI Equestrian NI, and the new partner to the Tour, Baileys Horse Feeds.
