Rodrigo Pessoa ready to resume quest for place at Tokyo Olympics

The securing of a one-year extension to his contract as Ireland’s show jumping team manager was welcomed last week by Rodrigo Pessoa, whose priority in his coming term is to get his charges to Tokyo 2020.

On making the announcement of his extended contract, Horse Sport Ireland stated that an option to renew for a further year was on the table, which would imply that Olympic qualification would, most likely, be the deciding factor.
