Riding the 10-year-old gelding Mr Coolcaum, O’Meara put in a show-stopping performance to take the majority share of the €2,500 on offer in the class, sponsored by Shires Equestrian.

By Coolcaum Hill, out of Ranch Lady, Mr Coolcaum clocked up a series of good results for O’Meara last year, including Munster Grand Prix at Clonmel and Maryville and a Premier Series win at South County Dublin, to name but a few.
