In the Grade IV Individual Test, Sharon Jarvis and Ceasy scored 68.902% to finish just ahead of second placed Kaye Hannan and Bradgate Park Wexford on 65.772%.

In the Freestyle on the final day, Kaye Hannan and Bradgate Park scored 55.208% to take first place.

Both Sharon and Victoria are currently long listed for WEG alongside Emma Booth, so it’s fantastic to see these two each achieving a score over 70%! Congratulations!
