CO Meath show jumper Nicky Galligan won his first FEI Grand Prix at Desert International Horse Park in Thermal, California, last Sunday with the Irish Sport Horse mare Javas Miss Jordan.

It was a special win for the combination, who have been pair since the 12-year-old Luidam mare was just a four-year-old. Bred by Judy Murphy in Co Louth, Javas Miss Jordan is out of the OBOS Quality-sired Ally Angel.
