A FUTURE generation of event riders and jockeys were competing at the Tullymurry Equestrian Centre near Downpatrick last Friday in The Pony Club Area 17 home championships.

A one-day event for those not seeking qualification for England, this fixture caters for the more novice and/or younger rider with show jumping and cross-country courses ranging from 85cms down to 45cms, and a class at the lowest level where ponies can be led in all three phases.
