SARAH Ennis spent Saturday on the ground, coaching members of the North East Region of the AIRC at Grange Farm, but she was back in the saddle on Sunday at Lisgarvan Farm where she had four rides in the EI100, all of whom completed on their flat work marks.

The Jill Spring-judged dressage phase proved very influential as few combinations had problems in jumping. Riding the six-year-old Frankfort Boy mare Greenhall Granuaile, Ennis had to share the early lead with Siobhan Schous on Derryvinane Herbie (21.3 penalties) but was left in front when Schous finished 12 seconds over the time on the final leg.
