Until now the mare was competed by Great Britain's Jessica Dimmock. The combination competed very consistent ending third in last year's CSI2* Grand Prix in Chepstow. The pair also placed fourth in the Grand Prix at Keysoe.
O'Connor states on his Facebook: "Thanks Jess Dimmock for the chance to ride this great mare- looking forward to continuing the great success you have had with her. #buyirishbuythebest"
While Jessica describes it as one of the hardest decisions she ever made.
