In August 2009, the United States Pony Club gave Preliminary riders from across the USA the chance to win a trip to Ireland that would take in the historical and cultural sites as well as give members a chance to explore and discover what goes into taking an Irish horse from grass roots to Olympic level. As part of their trip, they visited Scarteen where Chris brought them on an adventure around the banks and ditches of the farm.
