2012 IRL-Tattersalls International Horse Trial
31 May-03 June
Welcome to this STUNNING venue - Tattersalls Ireland, this is the 7th running of this fabulous event, and for myself, it is the 2nd year running that I have attended (and it is such a FUN place to run!!!).
Yesterday's First Horse Inspection was incredibly busy - there are 8 classes here this year and there were 3 separate lanes to enable efficiencyin getting through all the entrants! A quick introduction to the Australians here this weekend (as per usual, these riders will feature first in the album, followed by highlights of some of their International Competition)...
It is an electric event, and an electric atmosphere especially with London 2012 on everyones minds in the top levels, the pressure is on these incredible athletes to perform their BEST EVER EVERYTHING! Even through the rain today, the Irish Smiles shone and it definitely didn't dampen the atmosphere here... My Canons stayed dry thanks to the wonderful Gazebos and Marquees set up nice and snug to the arena's!!!
Sooo, enough from me for now, lets take a look at the action!!!
