CARNEW bounced back on the show calendar and this year’s show turned out be a day of firsts, particularly for the Simmons family from Wexford.

Their multitasking pony Killenagh Rose won a lead rein class with Emily, then was whisked away to line out in the mounted games team, this time with her sister Laura on board. The winning streak continued as the pair, plus her brother Harry with his pony Beauty, were on the victorious Wexford team.
