It's the final sign-off for the EquiRatings team in 2025… sort of. Because while most of the crew are mentally halfway to mince pies and mulled wine, the jumping world is still rolling on and some of us are very much still on duty. So what do we do with the whole team on one call at Christmas? Naturally: a very serious quiz (with questionable rules, minus points for guessing, and absolutely zero respect for staying on topic).

It's Friday night, it's festive, and the show jumping doesn't stop. Charlotte Smet is joined by Sam Watson to preview the London World Cup Qualifier weekend: the post-Geneva "calm down" that still comes with serious five-star pressure, valuable World Cup points, and the kind of home-crowd magic that makes London feel like Christmas.   Sponsors: Connolly's Red Mills are offering 15% off Foran Equine products to podcast listeners!

It's December 12 and the countdown to Christmas is on… but first, it's Geneva. Charlotte and Diarm sit down (with thanks to Connellly's Red Mills) to preview one of the strongest-field weeks of the entire season at CHI Geneva: the IJRC Rolex Top Ten Final (Friday night) and the Rolex Grand Prix of Geneva (Sunday)—a key leg of the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping. This episode is packed with rivalry, records, and a few "party spoilers" who could wreck the script. What we cover Why Geneva has become the show of the year: calendar timing, atmosphere, and the sheer depth of field. Kent Farrington vs Scott Brash: the defining head-to-head of 2025—and why it matters even when they're not on their "default headline" horses. The Top Ten Final quickfire: rapid takes on every contender, plus podium picks. Sunday's Grand Prix: record-chasing, legacy-chasing, and spoiler energy from a stacked cast.   Sponsors: Connolly's Red Mills are offering 15% off Foran Equine products to podcast listeners!

It's Dublin Horse Show week, and things have gone totally rogue at EquiRatings HQ. In this surprise crossover episode, Nicole Brown is joined by a very special crew — jumping podcast host Charlotte Smet, eventing's newest content wizard Ali Barrett, and the trustry senior analyst Georgia Patrick — for an unauthorised Alphabetti Spaghetti. What started as a quiet moment while Diarm was in a meeting quickly spiralled into full-blown podcasting chaos, live from a glass-walled booth in the middle of Dublin. This is Alphabetti Spaghetti  — jumping meets eventing, first dates are discussed, anger and rage are confessed, and the team may (or may not) be in trouble with Diarmuid Byrne.

The RDS Dublin Horse Show is nearly here and it's set to be one of the biggest weekends in Irish show jumping. Charlotte and Diarm are on the pod to get stuck into all the stories, form, and fan favourites heading to the RDS. They look at the pressure and potential surrounding Ireland's home team for the Aga Khan Nations Cup, highlight the top horses flying under the radar, and dig into the formlines behind stars like ESI Rocky, Eddy Blue, Chaccolino, and Bisquetta. They talk US firepower, Swiss history, Laura Kraut's hunt for a big win, and who's got the strongest 5* form in the field. They also run through which horses might be about to steal the spotlight, including a couple of serious dark horses from Jordan Coyle. It's packed with data, excitement, and a few curveballs, just how we like it heading into Dublin.   🎙️ Your Hosts: Meet Charlotte Smet, Diarmuid Byrne and Sam Watson, the EquiRatings team, who spend their time deep in number-crunching for new insights on the equestrian world. 👍 Like, Share, and Subscribe: If you're a fan of show jumping and eager to stay updated with the latest, hit the like button, share this episode with fellow equestrian fans, and subscribe to our channel for more engaging content! 📌 Follow Us: EquiRatings Jumping WhatsApp Channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaByaVo3QxS7qLas323H EquiRatings Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/equiratings/ EquiRatings Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EquiRatings Official Website: www.equiratings.com Latest News: https://news.equiratings.com/ 🔗 Alex Matz - Building a Career, One Round at a Time: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5NsC6fMlMNXM07DrQNSaqV?si=e081782307c74ca3
