DOZENS of pony-mad youngsters descended on the Three Counties Showground for the annual Malvern Pony Club fun day.

The riders were aged from four to 21 and Chris Esling, district commissioner for the Malvern branch, said there was a sea of happy faces all day long.

"This was probably one of the most successful days ever," said Chris. "We raised more than £300 for the pony club and members enjoyed all the classes, which included show jumping, handy pony and a gymkhana - which was great fun. The weather was great too!
