A BEAUTIFUL sunny day graced the grounds of Tubberbride Stables for the AIRC team championship qualifiers, sponsored by Premier Performance on May 4th. The venue welcomed 17 teams that were set to compete for the much-coveted first place and that golden ticket to the RDS Dublin Horse show in August.

With nine clubs from across the large West Region of AIRC being represented in total, the day kicked off with the first team in the ring at 10am, starting with a Tynagh Riding Club team, and they certainly set the standard for the day with their first rider providing an effortless clear round.
