USA’s Charlotte Jacobs won the feature 1.40m Gain/Alltech National Grand Prix on Saturday at National Balmoral aboard the Irish Sport Horse Rincoola Milsean. Sponsored by WKD, the competition offered a prize fund of €4,000.

Rincoola Milsean is by Aldatus Z out of the Grand Prix mare Rincoola Abu who was ridden to many top-class victories by the Army Equitation School’s Comdt Gerry Flynn. Bred by the late Harold McGahern, the diminutive nine-year-old chesnut gelding was brought up through the grades by Sean Monaghan and then Jason Higgins before Jacobs took over the ride in August last year.
