Ciara gave her reaction to WLR, saying: “Last year I exhibited as a new business at Iverk having just launched my new online store www.thechestnutcollection.com in early 2023. This year it was too close to the RDS Dublin Horse show so I just attended given this show is a firm favourite as it was the first show I competed at in the lead rein 40 years ago!”

Ciara also outlined more about her chosen outfit.

“I was wearing some key pieces from my website and was delighted to be in the line up and never expected to win. It was such a wonderful day out and lovely to have the opportunity to promote my company when Faith Amond enquired about my outfit.”
