YOUNG Irish rider Jeremy Sweetnam (23) made his debut on the Longines Global Champions Tour at the Monaco stop of the series last weekend and placed first and second in the CSI2* 1.40m division riding Gotham Enterprises’ Manodie II H.

He also rode Gotham Enterprises’ home-bred Manhattan to clear rounds in the same division, placing eighth in one class. “Monaco was amazing,” said Sweetnam who hails from Co Cork. “I’ve never seen anything like it. Manodie and Manhattan were both a pleasure to ride.”
