TIPPERARY pony rider Tom Wachman landed his first international win in the senior ranks last Saturday and made it a double when winning again on Sunday, the day before his 16th birthday, at the two-star show in Sentower Park, Belgium.

Riding the Coolmore Showjumping-owned 11-year-old mare Cesha Old for the first time in competitive action, Wachman was the fastest of 10 double clear rounds in Saturday’s 1.20m two-phase class, breaking the beam in 35.26 seconds.
