SESKINORE Harriers Pony Club hosted a very successful Tetrathlon and Arena Eventing competition in the beautiful grounds of Castle Irvine Estate, which saw competitors from North and South of the Border compete. Over 125 competitors took on Toni Donnelly’s challenging Arena Eventing course. Competitors also ran, shot and swam across the various class categories. Seskinore Harriers would like to thank everyone who helped and supported this event – without the team of dedicated volunteers and parents, this event wouldn’t happen.
