Triple bill of Nations Cup Show Jumping action for Ireland this weekend
- 30 May 2017, 16:42
A hectic few days of Show Jumping action will see Ireland field Nations Cup teams at no less than three different venues this weekend, in Switzerland, Denmark and in Canada.
St Gallen in Switzerland will host the fourth round of the FEI Super League Nations Cup series on Friday and although it is part of Europe Division 1, St Gallen is not one of Ireland’s six selected points-scoring rounds. Team Manager Rodrigo Pessoa has named his Irish squad sponsored by The Underwriting Exchange and Devenish ahead of the five-star event, with his team of four due to be named on Thursday.
Irish Development Team Manager Michael Blake will be in Canada as Ireland field a team in Friday night’s four-star Nations Cup at Langley in British Colombia. On Saturday, Ireland will also field a team at the three-star Danish Nations Cup in Uggerhalne, where Taylor Vard will be Chef d’Equipe.
