THE sixth Hunter Show and Go Sale, organised by the Traditional Irish Horse Association, was held on Tuesday at Mullingar Equestrian Centre where the top price of €10,200 was paid by Maria Marron for Johnny Vance’s Carrick Diamond Ranger (Lot 27).

This figure fell well short of the €14,000 given last year for Anni Flagmount but sale organiser Eamonn Gleeson, who is a TIHA national council member, wasn’t too downbeat about the results and comparative figures which showed that, on the day, just one horse less was sold than in 2018.
