THERE was a disappointing entry for the young horse championships which were held last Friday week, day one of the Barron Transport Dressage Ireland Senior National Championships at Castle Irvine, Necarne.

Mentioned elsewhere, the South East Region’s Caroline Lynch saw off three rivals when winning the Aqualogic four-year-old championship on her Gerard Fallon-bred Irish Draught gelding Rebel Bandit (Rebel Mountain - Bramblebrough Aisling, by Dubeggan Grey Mist), on whom she finished fourth in the Category 2 Preliminary championship.
