SAMANTHA Dale brought up a hat-trick of EI100 (Amateur) wins last Saturday, when the Northern Region of Eventing Ireland held their third event and final Tyrella event of the season.

Dale recorded a pillar-to-post success on her Joanne Jarden-awarded dressage score (22.3 penalties) with Katherine O’Hare’s 15-year-old Calgot Hero gelding Keonan Hero. Three of the 16 starters failed to finish, two being eliminated for rider falls at fence six, the black-flagged birch ditch.
