COOLEY Farm-based New Zealand international rider Amanda Goldsbury is constantly heading north but doesn’t mind the journey up and back, for eventing or show jumping, if they reap rewards such as the double she landed at the Eventing Ireland Northern Region one-day at Vesey Lodge last Saturday.

Goldsbury struck first in the 18-strong EI110 on the Irish Sport Horse mare Cooley Clarissma who had finished third (of 25) in an EI100 at Tyrella (3) on her EI debut and here claimed the win on the 28.3 dressage score she was awarded by Coreen Abernethy. This six-year-old bay by Clarimo out of a Cruising mare is owned by Cooley Farm in partnership with Carol Coad.
