OFFALY’s Darragh Kenny ended an excellent week at the Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington, Florida, with victory in Sunday’s three-star the $137,000 Horseware Ireland Grand Prix in the main international arena, continuing what has been an incredible circuit for Irish riders.

Michel Vaillancourt built a strong 1.50m track for the 45 entries, and 10 managed to make it through to the jump-off. 16-year-old USA rider Mimi Gochman was first to go and put in a double clear effort aboard Gigi’s Girl BH to set the standard and eventually finish on the podium in third place.
