CROSSGAR’s Seamus Rodgers, who rode in point-to-points when working locally for the McBratneys, won the Down Royal Racehorse to Riding Horse league final at Lessans Riding School and Stables outside Saintfield last Sunday on the Lahib gelding Jinnys Beaverlamb.

“Unfortunately, the weather was so dismal, cold and wet that no one wanted to hang around afterwards for the usual craic,” reported Seamus.
