It was all systems go yesterday at both the unaffiliated Millstreet Horse Show All-Ireland Championships in Co Cork and the Showjumping Ireland National Championships in Co Kildare.

It was three-in-a-row for Ireland at the Failte Ireland Dublin Horse Show today with Billy Twomey and Shane Breen taking outright victory in the first two classes and Cian O'Connor sharing victory in the Puissance.

A largely rookie Irish team swept all before them at the Finnish Nations Cup in Ypaja this afternoon to claim the trophy on an aggregate score of just five faults over two rounds.

IT should come as no surprise that plans for Ireland’s nations cup participation are to be revised following ShowjumpingIreland’s re-negotiation last week of its financial input.

THE new management team for Irish international show jumping will be officially unveiled on Monday, according to the Equestrian Federation of Ireland (EFI).
