AMSTERDAM’S five-star World Cup show proved to be happy hunting ground for the Irish contingent last week.

On Saturday evening, Mayo’s Michael G Duffy and the Carl Hanley Sporthorses GmbH-owned Irish Sport Horse Lapuccino 2 (by SIEC Livello, bred by Sven Kapp) took fourth place in the 1.60m Longines Grand Prix in the Dutch city. The combination were among 11 to keep a clean sheet over Louis Konick’s first round 1.60m track.
