SUNDAY’s Leinster Region show at the National Horse Sport Arena (NHSA) was marked by the successful return to competition of Kate Dwyer who landed both Advanced classes on her mother Maureen’s Irish Sport Horse gelding Vaalserberg.

Dwyer, now the mother of two children, Sophie and J.P., partnered the 13-year-old S Creevagh Ferro grey to score 70.14% in the match for honours in the DI100 judged by Michael Moore (2A) and 68.59 in the FEI Young Riders Preliminary test where three combinations appeared before Bernie Foley (List 1).
