I LIVE in Annaghmore, Co Offaly. Alongside breeding and producing sports horses, I train young riders at a variety of levels here and a number of them competed at Dublin this year. Watching their development, confidence and growth is such a wonderful achievement for our team. To see them competing on our home-bred ponies is very encouraging for the future.

As a good friend said, “the Annaghmore family holds a special place in your heart. They are some of the nicest horses to work with, so full of talent and the best temperament, which makes them ideal for competing at the top level” and this is definitely true.
