Speaking after his squad selection, James Kernan said: “We have three very talented squads that will be travelling to the Championships this year. Our Children on Horses riders were very impressive recently at the Future Champions in Hagen and jumped some very big courses. Our Junior squad is very talented and they have all performed very well recently. Likewise we are very lucky to have a really impressive Young Rider squad, many of whom have performed brilliantly in big classes over the last few months in Europe and in the USA.
“All-in-all we have three very strong squads to choose from. We had some excellent riders who were very close to being selected and my message to them is to keep working hard and their day will come. I want to thank our sponsors Gain Equine Nutrition, all of the trainers, parents, backroom team and all at Horse Sport Ireland for their help so far this year and hopefully we will have a very successful Championships and bring home some medals.”
