At Sligo Circuit Court, a jury has retired to consider its verdict in the trial of an international showjumper who is charged with deception over the sale of a pony in 2012

36-year-old Mr Kearins of Knockbeg, Colooney, Co Sligo, pleaded not guilty to the charge of deceiving Sean Ewing.

Mrs Ewing has given evidence that she never asked Mr Kearins to do this, she said she would never buy a pony she had not seen or ridden because safety was of the utmost importance in buying ponies for her daughters. She said the conversation he referred to never took place. Mr Howley said that Mr Kearins came to him and said there had been a mix-up over the pony, an allegation had been made and he could not sell it until it was sorted.

Mr Howley described Spot as simply a very brilliant pony, 100% quiet and children regularly ride him.
