Bruce is Back

It’s a beautiful cool summer day here at Richland Park today.  I wish I had remembered to pack bug spray but I’m still very excited for a great weekend at Richland.  I would like to wish a big EN “good luck” to all of the competitors who are eventing at Richland and elsewhere this weekend.  Also, thanks to the EN Team for holding down the fort while I was traveling on Thursday, and thank you, as always, for making EN part of your day. 

We will be talking a lot about selection for the WEGs over the next couple of days, but perhaps my favorite storyline of the weekend has nothing to do with short lists or Kentucky in October.  Bruce Davidson is returning to big time eventing at Richland with Cruise Lion in the CIC3* and Petite Flower in the CIC2*.  The Godfather had back surgery in March, and I know we all have deeply missed his riding at events this year, especially at Rolex.  Eventing just wasn’t eventing without Bruce in the saddle.  Cruise Lion didn’t make it past the 7th fence at Bromont with Buck, but I expect a much different result this weekend.  Cruise Lion sits in 9th going into the cross country.  We will have much more from Richland later today.  Go eventing.
