Splaine on scouting mission
Hoping to impress Splaine are Limerick’s Paul O’Shea (Realman), Offaly’s Darragh Kenny (Gael Force), Cork rider Shane Sweetnam (Rolette) and Idaho-based New Yorker Jennifer Crooks (SF Uryadi), whose mother is from Roscommon.
Ireland are drawn seventh in the $75,000, eight-country contest and Splaine, feels the quartet could win, though he added the usual caveats.
