QUALIFYING for the small event horse championship at the Dublin Horse Show can be very frustrating but, at Forth Mountain on Tuesday, the class was won by Ahare Olympic Flemmenico who had already qualified at Scarteen.

The six-year-old mare by Je T’Aime Flamenco was ridden by Ciaran Moran for Gorey’s Ella Lazenby who bred the chesnut out of her Olympic Luz mare Ahare Olympic Clover, a half-sister to the international two-star eventer Caraghs Buffet (by French Buffet).
