Fabulous 2022 final in Fintona
T
HE fifth and final of
Ecclesville’s
Show
jumping Leagues for
2022 was held on
Friday,
December
16 and it was a great night
of jumping, as not only
the League prizes were
up for grabs, but beautiful
perpetual trophies were also
being awarded.
The Ecclesville Team were
delighted that competitors
braved the icy conditions
to take part in the final. The
qualified competitors were
fantastic on the night and it
resulted in some nail-biting
jump offs!
Sophie Johnston was on fine
form throughout the Show
and picked up her red ribbon
by winning the 60cm class
on her lovely pony ‘Speedy’.
Tess Wallace and the very
careful ‘Elvis’ picked up the
red rosette in the 70cm class.
Shauna Murray and ‘Ritz’
then dominated the 80cm and
90cm with two fast rounds,
securing her first place in
both classes. Amanda Magee
and ‘Spencer’ were the proud
winners of the 1m class.

With
some
the
new
combinations picking up
valuable
Super
League
points, it left the final tally
on the league table very
interesting! The first of the
riders to receive a beautiful
cup was Sophie Johnston and
‘Speedy’, winner of the RD
Equestrian 60cm class.
The
Eugene
Donnelly
Memorial
Cup
for
the
70cm class was awarded
to a delighted Tess Wallace
and ‘Elvis’, who had a very
impressive three out of five
League wins in this class.
The battle for the 80cm Boyd
Perpetual Cup was a very
close competition between
Shauna Murray riding ‘Ritz’
and Tess Wallace riding
‘Elvis’. With Shauna winning
the class and claiming this
cup, it was then a double
celebration when she was
also awarded the AJS
Promotions Cup for 2022 in
the 90cm class.
The final class of the evening
was for the Farmfeeds 1m
Cup and this was won by
local girl Scarlett Knox riding
her lovely coloured pony
‘Patrick’.
The organisers would like
to take this opportunity
to thank all the many
competitors, who supported
this league and the Super
League. Also sincere thanks
to Raymond Caldwell, Course
Builder; to Malvern Moore
his assistant and to Jennifer
Leonard, who assisted in the
Judges’ box.
The very popular annual
Christmas Cracker Show
is scheduled for Tuesday,
December 27, starting at
10am with lots of fun classes
for all abilities. There will
also be a Festive Fancy Dress
Parade, sponsored by RD
Equestrian.
The team at Ecclesville
would like to thank the
equestrian community for
their
continued
support
and wish you all a Happy
Christmas.
