THE North and South Munster Regions of Dressage Ireland held a joint show last Saturday at the O’Donnell family’s Hillcrest Equestrian Centre in the Glen of Aherlow where the Galtee mountains provided a stunning backdrop for the day’s action.

Gwynth Lewis, List 1 with British Dressage, judged all but one of the classes from Novice level upwards and at that lower level she faced a larger turn-out in the long arena for the DI 24A than Jillie Rogers (DI List 3) did in the short arena for the DI23.
