‘An honour and privilege’: Irish Olympic eventing team confirmed

Eleanor Jones — Tue, 11 Jun 2024 10:21:55 +0000

Irish eventing high performance director Dag Albert said it is “an honour and a privilege” to lead his team to Paris, as the Irish Olympic eventing entries are confirmed.

Horse Sport Ireland was “delighted” to confirm the team of three and alternate who will travel to the Paris Olympics next month.

The horses and riders, listed in alphabetical order, are:

Irish Olympic eventing entries

Dag Albert said: “It is an honour and privilege to be leading the Irish team into the Paris Olympic Games this summer and I’m absolutely delighted with the athletes and their horses, who have been raising their performances week-on-week as we have gotten to this point in the selection process.

“The strength and depth we have in Irish eventing currently is probably at its highest ever and it made the decision difficult, as the athletes and their horses really pushed each other to make it to Paris.

“It is a huge undertaking for themselves to reach this level and also their teams at home to have the horses performing at the levels required to reach an Olympic Games – I’m extremely proud of them all.

“I must thank Horse Sport Ireland, Sport Ireland and the Olympic Federation of Ireland for all their support of the team and riders, and of course the eventing community in Ireland for always backing us.”

‘We need to progress’: dark breeches to be allowed in all phases of eventing

Eleanor Jones — Mon, 18 Dec 2023 12:51:05 +0000

Eventers on both sides of the Irish Sea will be able to wear dark breeches in all three phases of competition next year.

Eventing Ireland (EI) announced this week that competitors could wear dark breeches at national and training competitions. British Eventing, which has allowed the same for cross-country for some years, confirmed to H&H that this will apply in all phases from next season.

“As part of Eventing Ireland’s commitment to its diversity, inclusion and equality policy, at its recent meeting, the board discussed the subject of whether Eventing Ireland should follow other sporting bodies and clubs, such as British Riding Clubs, British Dressage and multiple national governing bodies in soccer, as well as national clubs, and give our athletes the choice to compete in dark-coloured jodhpurs at national and training competitions,” an EI spokesman said.

EI cited data from the Women’s Sports Federation showing that half girls drop out of sport before the age of 20, and that a main reason is “insecurity and feeling self-conscious about their bodies”. It also referred to a Women in Sport study, in which teenagers said reasons for giving up on their sports included body image, puberty and fear of judgement, and a 2021 Adidas survey that found “one in four girls drop out of sport during adolescence, citing fear of period leakage”.

EI asked members their opinions and “a resounding 78.5%” were in favour of the change.

Chair Niki Potterton told H&H: “Following the results of the survey, it was a unanimous board decision to bring in this rule for 2024. We are all about inclusivity and we need to progress as a sport, and this is the first step. We understand we are the first equestrian body in Ireland to introduce this rule and hope others will follow.”

Any solid colour including white, and white with a dark seat, will be allowed.

A BE spokesman told H&H: “We can confirm that BE will be allowing navy and black breeches in all three sections in all classes. Full details will be announced in the new members’ handbook.”

Pint-sized Olympic eventer retires: rider pays tribute to her ‘partner in crime’

Lucy Elder — Mon, 29 Jan 2018 18:42:00 +0000

Pint-sized Irish eventing superstar Portersize Just A Jiff has retired from competition “fit and well” aged 18.

The 15.1hh part-bred Connemara competed at Badminton five times, two World Equestrian Games, an Olympics, two senior European Championships and four Nations Cups during his glittering career under Camilla Speirs.

During his 12-year affiliated career, the son of Crosskeys Rebel notched up 1,106 national points as well as wins at international one-, two- and three-star level.

“Jiffy” was bought as a four-year-old from Richard and Deidre Bourns when Camilla was 15.

“Mum was looking for a pony for me, I started on horses and we decided to get a pony while I still had a couple of years left [eligible for pony classes],” Camilla told H&H.

“We went down and they pulled out about seven ponies, before they very reluctantly brought out Jiffy — we just knew straight away.”

He measured 14.2hh as a four-year-old, but a year later had put on a couple of inches.

The pair competed at the European Championships for juniors in 2006 and 2007, making the Irish young rider team at the 2008 and 2009 championships.

Their career continued its ascent and they made their four-star debut at Badminton in 2010, when they finished 14th.

“My first Badminton was incredible,” said Camilla.

“I was so young and he was so young — it was my first four-star and like entering the complete unknown, and he just blitzed around the cross-country.”

What you didn’t know about… Portersize Just A Jiff

Eventer Camilla Speirs tells H&H about her little horse who thinks he can take on anything

The pair’s best Badminton result came in 2016, when they finished ninth, before going on to secure their personal best CCI4* finish with a sixth place at Pau.

Camilla and Jiffy represented Ireland at the London 2012 Olympics and were travelling reserves at Rio 2016.

“He is like my partner in crime,” said Camilla, adding she “owes him so much”.

Jiffy’s size and achievements have made him a popular horse to follow for eventing fans.

“Because he is so unconventional, people really appreciate what he has done,” added Camilla.

“On paper he shouldn’t be physically able to do what he has done — I’m lucky to have has that opportunity to ride him.

“He is the Pony Club to Olympian dream.”

Camilla said Jiffy still “looks and feels amazing” and will be spending the summer looking after youngstock at home.

He will also be taking part in the Eventing Demo Tour this week (2-4 February) as a farewell to the sport.

Camilla said she wants this to be a chance for people who have supported them throughout Jiffy’s career to meet him.

The horse will appear at every stop of the tour — Maryville Stables, Cork, on 2 February; Spruce Lodge, Wicklow on 3 February and Portmore Equestrian Centre, Antrim on 4 February.

Horse Sport Ireland chief executive Ronan Murphy thanked Bridget and Camilla for making Jiffy available for selection over the years.

“He was a rising star from day one,” said Mr Murphy. “He has left his mark in the history books of Irish eventing and we wish him all the best in his happy retirement.”

‘Traffic light’ system to improve eventing safety

Lucy Elder — Tue, 01 Mar 2016 07:25:07 +0000

A colour-coded rating system for eventers is being rolled out in Ireland in a bid to improve horse and rider safety.

Eventing Ireland (EI) is working with eventing analytics company EquiRatings to use data to help prevent cross-country falls.

EquiRatings, set up by Irish four-star rider Sam Watson (pictured, top) and lawyer Diarmuid Byrne, has created a form-tracking system that has analysed more than 150,000 results.

This system is called the EquiRatings Quality Index (ERQI). Statistics show a link between a low ERQI and the likelihood of combinations incurring penalties, elimination and falls across country.

Mr Watson told H&H he thinks the system is going to be a “big step forward”.

“The two things at the top of our agenda are to increase the safety of horses and riders, and the overall welfare of horses. We have to be proactive.”

He added that other national federations have made enquiries about the system.

Each horse/rider combination is given a ranking of green, amber or red and the idea is to promote a responsible attitude towards campaigning an event horse.

Green means the pair can compete at the level at which they want to enter. Amber means there are “significant warning signs” in the combination’s cross-country form and EI “strongly advises” that they compete at a lower level until performance improves.

A red rating — typically just one cross-country clear in the past five to 10 attempts — gives EI the power to stop a combination entering that class.

Combinations at the lowest level (EI90) on a red rating must be assessed by an approved trainer.

The ranking will be visible to the organisation and the rider, but not the public.

The average rider fall rate in EI is 1.5%, but red zone riders have a fall rate almost three times higher at 4.3%.

Downgrading — where a pair must move down a level following two eliminations for falls in the showjumping or refusals and/or falls across country — is already in place under EI rules.

EI chairman Georgia Stubington said: “Eventing is a risk sport and we will never eliminate all risk, but this is a huge step forward into today’s digital world.”

Hat camera ban lifted in Ireland

Ellie Hughes — Tue, 14 Apr 2015 16:49:21 +0000

Eventing Ireland (EI) has followed the United States Equestrian Federation’s (USEF) lead and reversed its ban on the use of helmet cameras.

British Eventing (BE) announced last October that it was implementing a blanket ban on head cameras with immediate effect, due to a lack of information about the devices’ potential danger in a fall.

Ireland’s governing body and the USEF both followed suit.

The move was triggered by a comment from a French journalist, who said that he believed that the injuries sustained by Formula One diver Michael Schumacher in a skiing accident had been worsened by his head camera.

The journalist, Jean-Louis Moncet, subsequently said that this was only his “opinion”.

A BE spokesman said at the time: “Safety of horses and rider is a top priority for BE and the safety committee has engaged the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL) to conduct further research.”

But H&H has learned that this research is still pending.

EI chairman Georgia Stubington told H&H: “We had planned to wait [to make a decision] until we heard the outcome of the research carried out by BE, but with that on the back burner we took the decision to lift the ban and set out our own protocol.”

The USEF lifted its ban at the beginning of the year.

A BE spokesman said: “The matter is being considered further by the safety committee later this month, but as yet BE does not have any plans to complete independent research.

At international competitions run under FEI rules, head cams are allowed, but only when “specifically agreed by the FEI”.

The technical delegate (TD) is required to check how the cameras are set up on the helmet.

Nick Turner: mission accomplished [H&H VIP]

Horse & Hound — Fri, 05 Sep 2014 11:00:18 +0000

The goal all the way (at the World Equestrian Games – WEG) was Olympic qualification and I’m delighted. Every little thing didn’t go to plan, but the riders rose above it. They knew that whatever happened, they needed to deliver.

The riders all set out across country with massive determination and I’m immensely proud of them, even [individual] Clare Abbott who didn’t finish.

There was a moment of unrest when Sam had his showjumping stop, but he gritted his teeth and showed professionalism to get home.

I had a great team behind me — the grooms and owners, dressage trainer Terry Boon, showjumping trainer Ian Fearon, vet Hugh Suffern and farrier Nigel Perrott, who makes sure everyone’s got what they need.

This means we can plan for our up-and-coming horses and riders for the next two years, knowing we don’t have to chase FEI points or push young horses before they’re ready.

Eventing Ireland unveils breeding proposal

Charlotte White — Fri, 27 May 2011 14:58:01 +0000

Eventing Ireland (EI) has unveiled a three-pronged proposal to help it defend its position as the world’s leading breeder of top eventers.

The Reid Report — Breeding for Success is the culmination of two years’ work by a 10-strong taskforce comprising breeders, producers, riders and others involved in Irish eventing.

John Reid, taskforce chairman, said: “We’ve looked at the ‘packaging’, marketing and production of the Irish eventer — the ultimate equine athlete.”

The recommendations include recognising and rewarding breeders’ success and creating new incentives and educational opportunities for breeders.

EI also wants to improve access to statistical information, so it can identify successful eventing mare families and study the percentage of thoroughbred (TB) blood in sport horses.

John Wright, chairman of EI, said: “The point of the exercise is to encourage co-operation between the many groups, individuals and organisations involved in the creation of our stock of Irish event horses.

“Only through joined-up thinking by all the disparate groups can we expect to maintain our position as world leaders.”

William Micklem, a member of the report’s working party, believes the continuing influence of TB blood in eventing must not be underestimated, despite the change to short-format.

“Many of today’s eventers are labelled as Holstein or Trakehner, but if you take a deeper look at the bloodlines, you invariably find huge percentages of TB blood,” he told H&H.

An EI meeting later in the year will decide how to take the report’s findings forward.

Connolly’s Red Mills to sponsor Eventing Ireland spring combined training

Horse & Hound — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 10:28:09 +0000

Connolly’s Red Mills will be sponsoring Eventing Ireland’s (EI) regional pre-season combined training leagues this year.

These leagues act as a form of competitive pre-season training for both horses and riders, to build fitness and get the adrenalin flowing.

Red Mills’ nutritionist Nia O’Malley will be at certain legs of the league, to give advice on feeding and nutrition. Rosettes and merchandise supplied by Red Mills, as well as prize-money, will be presented to the winners and runners-up.

Red Mills’ Catherine Rudenko said: “We are very happy to be part of the training league — it’s a great way to get warmed up for the season. We are looking forward to another busy year with the Super League [also sponsored by Red Mills], and would like to again thank all the competitors who took part last year. Best of luck to everyone in the training leagues!”

Eventing Ireland chairman John Wright commented: “EI has had a very fruitful relationship with Connolly’s as a sponsor in recent years. The extension of their interest into regional training is greatly appreciated by the regions and competitors.”

The South Leinster Region and the Munster Region will be holding these combined training leagues. The South Leinster Region leagues will be at Coilog, every Sunday in February.

Maryville Equestrian Centre (EC) will host the Munster Region leagues on 6, 20 and 27 February. International dressage trainer Gisela Holstein will be at the sessions on 6 and 27 at Maryville EC, to judge and instruct each rider at novice and intermediate level for 15min after their test.

The training leagues will be comprised of classes of dressage and showjumping, to encompass intermediate, novice, pre-novice, junior, pony A, pony B and intro. The results of the leagues will be on the Eventing Ireland website after each session.

Entries are 30-40 Euros and competitors can enter online via www.eventingireland.com.

Northern Irish eventing records biggest loss to date

Horse & Hound — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 14:30:38 +0000

The northern region of Eventing Ireland (EI) is taking drastic steps to save money after reporting its biggest loss to date after the 2009 season.

At its AGM last week, the region voted to reduce the hours of office staff, increase entry fees and reduce prize-money at pre-novice and intro level classes for 2010.

Regional secretary Paul Johnston said in a statement: “The next season is going to be a difficult one, but the committee is confident of recovery through the prudent stewardship of events and a determination from the membership to resolve the situation through provision of more voluntary time.”

The losses were announced before the region’s AGM on Monday, 7 December. Regional chairman Len Caskey puts them down to the economic climate and poor weather.

“We’ve had a bad season, with a number of cancellations, and we aren’t on our own with that,” he says. “Numbers are down because when people used to run a second or third horse they’re cutting back.”

But although Mr Caskey said the loss is a “serious worry”, he said the committee and members are determined to find ways out of the crisis.

“We will find the ways and means of raising money and will not back away from running a full season of events — 10 or 12 — as we do every year,” he said. “We had a smaller than average turnout for the AGM but everyone was in support.”

Gilford-based eventer Trevor Smith said riders would back the organisation during its difficult times.

“We have some very good events in the north, and some very well-built courses — a lot of people come up from the south to event here,” he said.

The northern region is a division of Eventing Ireland, but run independently.

EI chairman John Wright said the losses “came as rather a surprise”, and were to be discussed at a board meeting on Tuesday (15 December).

“We’ll have a meeting with the northern region’s committee and discuss all aspects of it — finances, membership figures and the number of events,” he said.

Mr Wright admitted that the 2009 eventing season had suffered from bad weather, but said sport is healthy throughout the rest of the country and the losses are not mirrored across the rest of Ireland.

“During 2008 we made a profit of £90,000 and we’re projecting a profit of £60,000 this year, so we’re not doing too badly,” he said, adding: “Eventing is an expensive sport, but membership remains static — we’re not in any trouble.”
