LAST Friday proved a very sad occasion for the McGuinness family of Rush in north Co Dublin as they had to put down their former Grade A show jumping pony Trina Cheile who had reached the venerable age of 33.
The brown gelding spent the majority of the past 27 years in the care of racehorse trainer Ado McGuinness whose elder daughter, Lorna, was the first of his children to ride the pony, doing so from late 2009 to the end of the following year when her brother Tadhg took over the ride.
