Irish riders selected for Olympics

By Victoria Spicer on 4th-Jul-2012



Billy Twomey and Denis Lynch will represent Ireland in show jumping at the London Olympics.

Individuals

Twomey was selected with Edwin and Sue Davies's mare Tinka's Serenade, while Lynch will ride Thomas Straumann's gelding Abbervail van het Dingeshof.

Ireland did not qualify a show jumping team for London but two individual slots were secured by Twomey and Lynch from the Olympic rider rankings.

Eventing team selected

Ireland's eventing team has also been announced, with first-time Olympian Aoife Clark (Master Crusoe) lining up with Mark Kyle (Coolio), Joseph Murphy (Electric Cruise), Michael Ryan (Ballylynch Adventure) and Camilla Speirs (Portersize Just A Jiff).
