McAuley sixth in France

CO LOUTH’s Mark McAuley finished sixth in the four-star 1.55m Grand Prix of St Lô in France last Sunday. Riding the 11-year-old gelding Jasco vd Bisschop, who is owned by the rider and Scea la Tuiliere, he was one of seven combinations to make it through to the jump-off, where four faults saw him finish sixth and earn €5,500. Victory on home soil went to Julien Epaillard with Queeletta (0/0 39.13).
