LEGAN’s Edel Whyte will remember this August for some time to come as, on board her father Gerry’s Abel Star, she followed up her win at the Dublin Horse Show as a member of Mosstown Riding Club by successfully representing Longford Pony Club at Ballindenisk last weekend.

The Whyte family have always been staunch supporters of their local Branch with Edel following sisters Laura and Teresa and brother James into the membership. On her first visit to the national eventing championships, in 2014, she finished fifth in the Junior section on Blessington Pride who she partnered to victory the following year.
