The article highlighted how Tom was initially hesitant to take on the big Irish Draught stallion, but has really seen him blossom in training the past three years to compete extremely successfully at the upper levels in both Canada and most recently in Wellington, Florida, winning a Fourth Level Open Championship title there. 
Eamon and Tom are consistently getting high scores from the FEI judges, and had a second place finish with a 65% at their first Prix St. Georges competition at Welcome Back to White Fences I! Tom stressed in the article the importance for all riders to be open to all breeds of horses. Tom also noted that Eamon's special qualities are his, "willingness to work, ability to be challenged, and huge heart."Eamon is owned by Keith and Elizabeth Douglas of Pairadox Farm (become a "fan" of the farm on Facebook!). Eamon and Tom will be performing Dressage demonstrations as part of the Irish Village at the World Equestrian Games.
