IRELAND has announced strong line-ups for next week’s Pony Club Nations Cup at the Ballindenisk international horse trials, where members of the Irish Pony Club will compete at 1* and 2* levels against their counterparts from England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

The IPC members have been selected on their placings at the Connolly’s Red Mills eventing championships, which were held at Tatteralls Ireland last month, and the squad have since benefited from top-class training with Debbie Byrne, Joanne Jarden and Jane O’Flynn.
