THE pressure was on younger riders last weekend, as they travelled to The Meadows in a bid to book their place at the Dublin Horse Show at the final pony, young rider and Children on Horses qualifier.

The 128cm decider went down to the wire, as 14 of the 63 starters booked their place in the third round against the clock. Taking the win was Jennifer Meagher aboard the Fiona Boland-owned Sasha, when she galloped home in 32.22.
