IRISH show jumping duo Shane Breen and Bertram Allen kept up almost relentless pressure at the five-star World Cup show in Stuttgart, Germany, last weekend, scoring top five places against formidable opposition.

Tipperary-born Breen, who opened the show with a win on Thursday aboard Wembley Farms Inc’s Calido Boy, claimed a third place on Friday on the same horse, and added a fourth later in the afternoon on the chesnut stallion Golden Hawk when competing in a 1.50m competition.
