About this episode

Charlotte Smet and Diarm Byrne preview the LGCT of Miami Beach, discussing standout performances and the competitive field.

Charlotte Smet and Diarm Byrne are back from Wellington and straight into another huge week, this time previewing the LGCT of Miami Beach. After a dramatic US Equestrian Open Final in Wellington, the conversation starts with the standout performances that continue to shape the 2026 season. Charlotte and Diarm dig into Richard Vogel's extraordinary depth, debating whether Gangster Montdesir is now more than just the exciting young horse in the string and asking what that could mean for the road to Aachen. Then it is on to Miami, where a fascinating field brings together proven championship campaigners, rising stars and some of the most underrated horses in the sport. 🎙️ Your Hosts Charlotte Smet and Sam Watson, the EquiRatings Jumping team, bringing data-led insight to the biggest moments in show jumping.
