Show Jumping - Ireland Joint Second In Falsterbo Nations Cup

A determined squad at Falsterbo, Sweden, today (Friday) signalled that Ireland is still very much in Nations Cup form, with a joint second place in the Swedish Nations Cup.

Nine countries took part, and the Cup was won by host nation Sweden with 24 penalties, Ireland sharing second spot with Switzerland, both on 24 faults.

Highlights of the Irish performance included a second round clear by Cian O'Connor and <Irish Independent Annabella> and two four-fault rounds by Marie Burke and <Chippison>.

Chef d'Equipe Peter Leonard said afterwards: <<It was an effective team effort by Marie Burke, Clem McMahon and Capt. Gerry Flynn, while Cian O'Connor was outstanding, taking one of only six individual clears in the second round. Both Sweden and New Zealand fielded very strong teams, as both were taking part in Olympic selection here today, and the strong course reflected the nature of this. I think Ireland delivered a high class act at a very high class show.>>
