IT’S a busy weekend for Ireland’s senior international show jumpers, as two Nations Cups teams will be fielded on two different continents within three days. The action kicked off yesterday (Friday) in Rome, where Jessica Kurten’s team were contesting the five-star event in Piazza di Sienna, which Ireland last won in 2023. Kurten’s team of Jordan Coyle riding Cordiamo (a last-minute substitution for Chaccolino), Denis Lynch riding Vistogrand, Cian O’Connor riding Ulysses and Tom Wachman riding Tabasco De Toxandria Z were heading into round two on four faults at time of print.
