WHEN your luck is in, it’s in and, having received a call-up from the reserve list to the Irish squad for the European Junior eventing championships in Strzegom, Poland later this month, Molly O’Connor won the EI110 (J) at Loughanmore last Saturday.

Despite a fence down show jumping, the Seaforde 17-year-old led from start to finish in this seven-runner class on board her father Paul’s Traditonally-bred Irish Sport Horse mare Stillbrook Aoife (27.3), a nine-year-old grey by Watermill Swatch. With the only clear show jumping round, Katie Robinson completed on her dressage score to finish second with Ophelia Cruise (32.3).
