nannasalmi in The Dublin Horse Show 2015

Dublin Horse Show has become a Dublin institution since the first time it was held in 1864. It celebrates Ireland's affinity with the horse, from the best show horses to the best international show jumpers.

There is something to see for everybody, you can "shop until you drop", you can spend hours just watching audience, riders and horses from all over the world. And, of course, you can eat and drink well and spend some fabulous days with your friends!

If you work there, the five days are interesting, they give a lot, you get to meet horse loving people and colleagues - and afterwords... you are tired but happy!

Our Irish agent, Stacey Mc Mahon / Tailored Equestrian had a concessions stand at Simonscourt and we were there for three days with her company. Thank you all for visiting us, it was amazing to meet you all and get such wonderful feedback on the collection!

There was not too much time to go around photographing, but here some moments...

Tailored Equestrian represents the top brands like Cavalleria Toscana, Parlanti, Animo, Anna Scarpati, Devoucoux and Flexi Equine. And, of course, nannasalmi horsehair fine jewellery. If you are in Ireland, contact Stacey, she would be more than happy to help you with shopping these exqlusive brands.

The foals were cute!

My Girl Trocadia

My girl (Trocadia) has a special story. She comes from the stud Olympia. After a few races she has been rejected. One win and a few positionings haven´t been enough. Afterwards her previous owner (herself a jockey) took her and she got 2 foals. 

Her owner kept the foals but the mare in addition was too expensive. By chance I heared of her, went to see her and immediately fell in love with her. She set me back 200 €. We moved to a western barn and I decieded to ride her in western style. 

Since about 2 months she is under the saddle now. Sometimes we still have some differences. She has a lot of character and she is very intelligent. But anyway I prefare those horses.

She is a real beauty (and she knows it very well). And for me she is very special. My dream and my wish complied absolutely with her.
