We are thrilled to welcome Barberstown Castle as new sponsors for First Ridden, Lead Rein & Mini Show Pony Championship at this year’s Horse of the Year Show.

Amanda Torrens of Barberstown Castle says: “Barberstown Castle has been in the heart of the horse racing and horse sale industries in Kildare Ireland since 1288, during its long history there has always been an established association between the Castle and all equestrian pursuits.”

She continues:

“Barberstown Castle is now honoured and proud to be associated with the most prestigious Horse of the Year Show and look forward to strong links into the future and welcoming guests from the UK to enjoy our unrivalled hospitality.”

Event Director, Jane Warmington, said: “It is great to have Barberstown Castle join as an entirely new sponsor for the show this year. Whilst we have an incredible array of longstanding partnerships, we are always keen to welcome fresh faces to our show and we look forward to developing this new relationship over the coming years. The First Ridden, Lead Rein & Mini Show Pony Championship welcomes some of the youngest riders as they step into the limelight through these prestigious classes.”
