CAPT. DAVID O'BRIEN TAKES PREMIER SERIES GRAND PRIX WITH ANNESTOWN AT MULLINGAR Captain David O'Brien steered the Minister for Defences Annestown to victory in the third round of the TRM/ShowjumpingIreland Premier Series at the Mullingar International Horse Show. Having been part of the recent Nations Cup winning side at Copenhagen, Captain O'Brien was the fastest of 9 combinations through to the jump off from the 36 that started out the class with €20,000 on offer from the Mullingar International Show. With just two combinations recording a double clear the Army Equitation School rider moved to the head of the leader board when he broke the beam in 45.72 to give the pair their first win in the Premier Series. Kildare rider Edward Doyle slotted his home bred Ramiro B stallion Samgemjee into second with only other double clear and a time of 47.50. This stallion is a half brother to famous Flexible and Flexing and appears to be going in the right direction to follow in their footsteps. Young Riders have been making a lot high profile results of late with many taking top 6 finishes in the TRM National Grand Prix League. Robert Harrison, today brought Team Harmony Chelto Z to fill third place as the fastest four faults in the jump off. The pair also took 3rd in the TRM National Grand Prix at Kill recently. Anne Marie Fitzpatrick was the highest placed lady rider last year in the TRM National Grand Prix League and she put her first points on the board with 4th place on her husband Harry's Finders Keepers 2. Trevor Breen and Adventure De Kannan took 5th with two poles on the floor in the jump off just ahead of TRM National Grand Prix League Leader Mervyn Clarke and The Big Boy who took 6th. The TRM/SJI Premier Series takes a short break now before the next legs at Omagh and Blessington on July 2nd and 3rd.
