VICKY TULLOCH WINS 20,000€ MULLINGAR GRAND PRIX
Tuesday 08 June 2010
Vicky Tulloch from Darlington, County Durham, and her eleven year-old bay mare Soliegette, stormed to victory in the 20,000€ Grand Prix at CSI2* Mullingar, Ireland yesterday.
Twenty-six-year-old Vicky was the best of an eight man jump-off, drawn last to go but starting off at a blistering pace, her daring gallop to the last paid off as she clocked the winning time of 39.24 seconds to clinch victory.
Speaking after the class, Vicky said:
“It's a fantastic show and the riders and organisers are very nice and helpful. I produced this horse myself so I am delighted at the way she went. I saw Paul go and I knew I just had to go for it, but I knew that I could trust the mare. Hopefully I will come back to Ireland next year, maybe with some new horses too.”
