I’M from Doon, in Co Offaly and work as an intraday analyst for a local insurance company. My parents are Michael and Chris Mannion from Windgap Stud and I’m one of eight siblings. My partner Paddy Drennan comes from a show jumping family in Gowran, Co Kilkenny and works in the finance sector.

Thankfully, Paddy had some great day’s show jumping with Randomer. Some of his highlight moments were winning Jumping In the City qualifiers and qualifying for the RDS. He also competed with great success at the Wales & West Show with his ponies Dessie and Flume.
