Olympic Hopefuls Roll into Tatts 2016

The home side are hoping to turn the tables in this class with the likely favourite residing a matter of minutes away from the venue and knows the course well having finished 3rd in this class back in 2014. Horseware Stellor Rebound, ridden by Ireland’s Sarah Ennis, brings one of the best profiles into this year’s field and will likely feature towards the top end of the leader board from start to finish. Ireland’s highest ranked rider in the world, Aoife Clark (39th), has entered her promising 9 year old Wasting Light and the home supporters will be hoping that this pair could complete a clean sweep of the podium for Ireland along with Horseware Stellor Remound and the inform Padraig McCarthys on Mr Chunky who comes here on the back of winning Chatsworth CIC3 Star.

Commenting on the line up, Event Coordinator Amber Byrne said;

“We host eight classes in total at Tattersalls. The three star classes have attracted the crème de la crème of the Evening World but the other competitions are equally as competitive. We host a young horse class which sees future champions being put through their paces. We also have an Under 24, Junior, Pony and the One Star competition which includes both amateur and professional riders.  Tatts really is the Olympics for many of the amateur and junior riders. It is an opportunity for them to compete on home turf against and alongside the best in the world. The competition combined with the Country Fair, Kids Entertainment, Artisan and Craft Market and lots of picnic areas, bars and restaurants makes it an unforgettable day out for equestrian enthusiasts and those just looking for a really fun and affordable family day out in the Countryside.”
