It's the time of year when the next generation of eventing stars step into the spotlight. With the season wrapped, attention turns to Ireland and the Goresbridge Go For Gold Sale, where some of the sport's biggest names hunt for future five-star winners.
Nicole is joined by two of the experts behind the selection panel to take you inside one of the most influential young horse sales in world eventing. They break down what they look for in a future star, how the process works from start to finish, and why this sale has produced horses now competing at Europeans, Worlds and five-stars.
From vetting insights to buyer tips, the value of Irish education, and how amateurs and elite riders alike can find their next horse, this is the closest thing to sitting at the selectors' table.

- What sets the Go For Gold sale apart
- How horses are assessed and selected

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
