Brennanstown Riding School

10/01/2026

Lots of action over the Christmas and New Year. Our Annual Children's Show was followed by some really lovely rides over the holiday season. The Hollybrook Riding Club held their Annual Christmas Ride on 28 December followed by mulled wine and refreshments - likewise on New Years Day. There was also a two day camp for children held on 2 and 3 January to start the New Year. Life has returned more or less to normal now and our Easter Term of lessons is commencing this week.

Christmas is in full swing here at Brennanstown, with two traditional events taking place. Friday was the Staff versus Livery Owners competition which took the form of Top Score jumping. Our Childrens' Christmas Show took place on Saturday where equitition jumping was the order of the day for the more experienced riders while the junior group took on an Obstacle Course. All then joined together for the Pony Club games which completed this Show. Santa and his reindeer (aka 'Nick' and 'Tommy') arrived in time to hand out the rosettes and prizes and were greeted by great cheers from both children and parents alike.

Another few busy weeks here at Brennanstown - BHS Stage 1, 4 and 4 Coach on 13,14 and 15 October followed by a Training Day for RDAI Volunteers on Monday 20 October to say nothing of the 4 week Hollybrook Riding Club Dressage League which was held over the last 4 Sundays.
All the above went well and the leagues finished on 26 October when the winners of the bronze horses for this year were decided and the trophies presented. In particular, we would like to congratulate Aoife and Alfie who won the RCE Class, Anna Maher and her young horse, Rumi, who took the YH Class and, of course, the wonderful Nick ridded by Sinead Barry, who brough home the RCP1 trophy, together with the Brian Bloomer Memorial and Iomar Costello Cup

Congratulations to Louise and Aoife who were both competing at the International Three Day Event in Ballindenisk last weekend - Louise in the 4* on Atlantic Rockstar (Rocky) and Aoife in the 2* on Slanduff Bell X1 (Oscar). Both had good dressage scores, a pole or two down in the showjumping and finished on Sunday with clear xc rounds over a testing track, with just a couple of time penalties. Pictured are Rocky with owners Martin and Clodie Coen, Louise and Aoife
