MEATH dominated last Friday’s Area 7 dressage and combined training qualifiers for next week’s Irish Pony Club Festival. While Louth won two of the three show jumping qualifiers on Saturday, the Meaths were also on the mark over the coloured poles.

The two-day fixture was held at Cavan Equestrian Centre, where Meath fielded the only two teams in the pure dressage qualifier, winning through the quartet of Elsa Mullen (Splainc), Nadine Dunne (Don Quixote), Susana Mullen (Coolrahnee Joshua) and Elena Mullen (BVH Ardeo).
