ALISON Holden and Lates Eddie added a win in the EI115 (Open) at Flowerhill to their 2026 tally, which includes two podium placings at CCI2*-S level. Holden and the 13-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding by My Oh My, who is owned by the rider’s husband Eamon, recorded the lowest dressage score across the Vida Tansey-judged EI115 sections. They added no further penalties to finish on 28.4, while second place went to James O’Haire riding Penelope Guiness’s Jamaica Rose, over seven marks in arrears.

Holden was complimentary of the venue and the organisers, saying: “The course was beautifully presented, with lots of different and interesting horse-friendly questions. The ground was perfect, it couldn’t have been better, and there were some lovely galloping stretches on the track too. It was such a nice event to attend. Even the portaloos are a pleasant experience and we loved the show jumping viewing area, with seating inside the gazebo.”
