Partners in Paris - Aga Khan Special
With it being one of the highlights on the Irish Equestrian calendar we couldn't not do an episode on the Aga Khan team that will compete for Ireland at the Dublin Horse Show this week. After what has been a massively successful season for Michael Blake’s team, a quartet of Darragh Kenny with VDL Cartello, Denis Lynch with Vistogrand, Mark McAuley with GRS Lady Amaro (ISH) and Cian O’Connor with Fancy De Kergane will enter the fray on Friday bidding to go one better than last year, when they finished runner-up to a perfect Swiss performance. You can watch it live on RTÉ from 1.45pm if you can't make it to the show. Horse Sport Ireland is the National Governing Body for Equestrian Sport in Ireland and maintains The Irish Horse Register.

Partners in Paris - Day 11 Review
The final day of equestrian sport in Chateau de Versailles took place this morning with the Individual Final taking centre stage. Ireland were represented by two athletes, Daniel Coyle and Shane Sweetman, who though didn't quite make the podium acquitted themselves well in great company. After ten days of action and our nine athletes holding their own on the world stage there can be nothing but pride when reflecting on the Paris Olympics.

Partners in Paris - Day 10 Review
After a quiet weekend for the Show Jumping Team, the individual qualification round was held whereby 75 combinations where to be narrowed down to 30 ahead of tomorrow's final. Clears from Shane Sweetnam and James Kann Cruz and Daniel Coyle and Legacy means they progress to tomorrow. An unfortunate fence down for Cian O'Connor and Maurice left it up to time, and it was two seconds that left him on the wrong side of the cut off. The individual final takes place tomorrow at 10am French time and will be in reverse order of merit following today's classification.
