Remembering Captain Con Power π
Today, we celebrate the legacy of Captain Con Power, a true icon in Irish equestrian sport whose unforgettable performances at the RDS Dublin Horse Show left an indelible mark. Known for his courage and skill, Con achieved historic victories, including Irelandβs legendary three-in-a-row Aga Khan triumph and the thrilling puissance win with Rockbarton.
His passion lives on through his family, with his wife Mags, a talented horsewoman in her own right, and their children Robbie and Elizabeth achieving remarkable successes in National Hunt and eventing.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to the Power family. Captain Con Powerβs legacy at the RDS and in Irish horsemanship will inspire generations to come. ππ΄
