On the eve of the Aga Khan Nations Cup at the Dublin Horse Show, Charlotte Smet is joined by Sam Watson and Jumping Podcast newcomer Ali Barrett for a deep dive into this year’s Nations Cup of Ireland.

Ireland are the favourites, coming in with a 34% win chance, but can they finally deliver the win at home? Sam brings the analytics, Ali brings the rookie questions (and charm), and Charlotte keeps it all on track as they preview the teams, horses, and podium potential.

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.
