LAST Saturday, 47 combinations lined out for the Showjumping Ireland National Grand Prix and it was young rider Hannah Patterson who led the victory lap. Riding her own Daberlina M, the Co Down rider recorded the senior Grand Prix win. It has been a busy few weeks for this combination as they were also in action in the young rider division in the RDS.

Bred by J. Miedema and owned by Patterson, the nine-year-old Dutch warmblood mare is by Zento out of the Concorde-sired mare Zuberlina Rosalino. Produced by Patterson since 2015, the pair have been consistently placed through the grades and were part of the young rider team that finished second on Hagen in June.
