This confident and hilarious character is by Iroko and out of a very successful line of jumping mares. Bought as a 3 year old by Dassett Eventing, Joey spent much of his 4 year old year learning the ropes in Ireland and came over to our UK base later in 2016.

Joey competed at BE100 level as a 5yo and Novice level as a 6yo, proving to be a fabulous jumper. In 2019, as a 7yo, Joey placed and jumped great double clears at six consecutive Novice level events, as well as his first international event, Rockingham Castle CCI-S2*. He gained multiple placings at Intermediate level and jumped clear and inside the time at his first long format event. Before the Covid-19 pandemic, Joey’s plan was to step up to Advanced level in the summer of 2020, but as with all the horses, his plans got pushed back. He had some brilliant Intermediate runs throughout the 2020 season, including double clear around the tough track at Cornbury and rounding off the season with a 2nd place at Oasby. Joey was sold to the young and talented Izzy Hall at the end of 2020, and we were delighted to welcome the pair back to DE HQ at the start of 2023, as they base themselves with Team DE during Izzy’s gap year and whilst Izzy studies at in Oxford.  The pair had a cracking 2023 season rarely out of the placings at Intermediate and great results in their first CCI-S3* runs.

For 2024, Izzy and Joey will build themselves up for the Young Rider CCI-L3* at Bicton Arena, and hope to get some great results along the way!

What Joey lacks in height he most certainly makes up for in personality! He never fails to make you laugh (or slightly despair!) when you least expect it! Known for some “free range” exploring of the lorry parks at most of his first events of each year, Joey will make sure you are always paying attention. Izzy and Joey have a superb relationship and the pair thoroughly trust each other. They are a pleasure to work with and support.
