SECTION A of the five-year-old class at the Young Event-Horse Series qualifier at Scarteen on Wednesday was won by Richard Ames’s Ballyvillane Obos with whom rider Daniel Alderson will be paying a return visit to Dublin.

It’s been a busy time for Alderson who had two rides, both well-placed, at last week’s Tattersalls International Horse Trials and he, like many others, not all of whom are riders, would benefit from a longer break before the start of the qualifiers.
