Hometown: Armagh (from Dundalk) | Equestrian Update
In Hong Kong, Equestrian representative Eilish Byrne took to the arena today in the Individual Freestyle Dressage Test Grade II. With a strong performance from both rider and horse, Byrne finished in eighth position overall with a score of 65.833%.
Speaking from Qingdao, team manager Niall Quirk said; "Eilish produced her best performance ever today, she has raised her level up a notch and has proven she is medal potential for the future. Naturally she would like a better score with only one percent separating her from fourth place, but she is delighted." Eilish has now completed her Paralympic competition and will join the rest of the Irish team in Beijing for the remainder of the Games
