Billed as the richest young horse show jumping class in the world, the Irish Breeders Classic is confined to five and six-year-old horses that have been born in Ireland and boasted a prize fund of €50,000 for the last two years.

A major addition to this year’s schedule is a select sale of show jumping horses, run by Goresbridge Horse Sales, which will take place at the show, which will include foals, three, four, five and six-year-olds.
