both the 80cm and 90cm classes at Connell

HURSDAY, February 16 saw Connell
Hill Equestrian Centre, Randalstown
holding their first unregistered show
of 2023. The weather was kind, so
they ventured outside.
This was a great day to allow young horses
to jump around a well built course, designed
by Mr Will Crean, and prepare for the season
ahead.
This Thursday, February 23 sees the start of
the Spring Horse League, which will include
classes from 80cm to 1.30m. This league will
continue to run every Thursday throughout
March, commencing at 10am.
Connell Hill have planned to run a Working
Hunter Show on Sunday, March 5, which will
include a full range of NIF qualifiers for horses
and ponies. Horses will start at 10am and
Ponies approximately 2pm.
