THE Irish Sport Horse stallion Ardcolum Duke, ridden by Cork’s Billy Twomey scored two top-four finishes at the five-star show in Basel last week, coming on the back of another fourth place finish for the pair at Liverpool International the week before.

Twomey and the Joe Flynn-owned 12-year-old son of Gypsy Duke, who is out of a Clover Hill dam, finished on the podium in last Friday’s 1.45m Longines world ranking speed class.
