A THIRD FEI gold medal in three years made its way to Castlefield Sport Horses in Bennetsbridge, Co Kilkenny this week. This time it was not belonging to Ger O’Neill, but to his protégé, Jason Foley, who on Sunday was crowned the Junior European Champion at the underage European Championships in Fontainebleau, France.

Foley led from the start and was crucial in helping the team win a bronze medal on Friday afternoon when jumping a double clear aboard the lovely grey Irish Sport Horse gelding Castlefield Vegas.
