TO recap on last week’s Hippomundo (www.hippomundo.com) feature, it was the best year yet for Irish breeders and the Irish Sport Horse studbook in these rankings.

Pacino Amiro (Pacino - Carnone Dancing Queen, by NC Amiro), finished second in these prize money-based show jumping rankings to Killer Queen VDM. Bred by Donegal’s Simon Scott, Pacino Amiro’s 2022 earnings (€946,710) placed his breeder fifth amongst global show jumping breeders in these rankings, a remarkable achievement.
