THE amateur committee of Eventing Ireland found a very supportive sponsor this year in The Husk, equine technology specialists, who not only sponsored the three championships at Kilguilkey House in September but also three season long leagues.

The amateur contingent really enjoyed the championships at Michael and Danny Dulohery’s Co Cork venue and it was very encouraging to see how many riders, with their supporters, travelled down from the Northern Region, some making a very long weekend of the trip.
