The Irish Breeders Classic holds the richest show jumping young horse class in the world. The show was founded in 2012 by Ronan Rothwell of Boleybawn Horses. His primary aims were to establish an event which would boost demand for horses bred by Irish breeders and to attract new investors to the sport.

The result is a competition which has gained  international recognition, with many past winners going on to have top international careers.

Our sponsors and supporters are the lifeblood of Irish Breeders Classic and we would like to thank each and every one for their involvement over the years.
