MAX Foley put another win on the board in the TRM Showjumpers Club Spring Tour last Sunday at Barnadown. Riding the Hugh McOwan-owned Illusion De Hus, he lodged the fastest of 11 double clears in 34.69. This is the second win in the series for this pairing, having claimed victory in the round in Warrington.

Speaking after the win, Foley said: “It was great to put another win on the board with this mare, ahead of the show in Millstreet. Her owners, the McOwans, were there to watch her win, which was great. They are great supporters of show jumping and no doubt this mare will bring them plenty more wins, as she is just improving each week. She is a mare with lots of scope and heart.”
