THE Irish Pony Club’s representatives flew the flag high for Ireland at Breckenbrough in north Yorkshire last weekend, as they filled the first four placings in the team competition at the Minimus Home International run by the UK Pony Club.

Irish Gold (Lucy O’Connell, Molly Jean Clarke, Jamie Cronin, Alex Walch and Archie McCartan) were well named, as they topped the podium on a score of 17,670 points, ahead of Irish Green (Nancy Lyons Teehan, Georgina Purcell, Scott Doran, Ben Long and Luke Murphy) on 17,284.
