BALLINDENISK’S second international fixture of the year marks the near end of the Irish eventing season, but with blue skies and good ground underfoot, the mood was high all weekend. With seven international classes on the schedule, along with three national classes, it was a busy week for the entire Fell family. With a new courtyard of permanent stables housing the long-format classes, over 200 horses arrived in Watergrasshill, representing seven nations.

A special presentation was made to Dr Mary Flannery by the Fell family, celebrating her 50 years of service to the eventing community.
