Leddy Third In Zagreb Grand Prix

AN AMATEUR rider just a few seasons ago, Dun Laoghaire's Glen Leddy has justified his selection as an international rider at Zagreb, Croatia, this week.

The best of the Irish in today's (Sunday) Grand Prix at the Croatian four-star event, Leddy travelled as an individual rider, and so did not share in the glory of Friday's second place by the rookie Irish team in the Nations Cup competition.

His third place in the Zagreb Grand Prix on Michael Leddy's horse <Gold Fingers> , however, established that the relatively inexperienced Irish squad were firing on all cylinders.

Dave Quigley, riding <Ashdale's Futuro> came fractions of a second behind Leddy to take fourth today in the Grand Prix, while Nations Cup star Ryan Crumley, from Derry, brought his horse <Baltimore> into sixth.
