Rolex Horses Enjoy Their Vacations After Kentucky

After months of focused preparation and an intense five days of competition, we love seeing the horses that put in such valiant efforts at Rolex Kentucky receiving some well deserved R&R. These horses are making the most of their vacation time, and we look forward to seeing them back out later this year, doing what they do best!

Boyd Martin’s four-star first timers Master Frisky and Crackerjack are enjoying some naked turnout time at Windurra in Cochranville, Pennsylvania, after finishing seventh and 25th, respectively.


Obos O’Reilly went double-clear on cross country and finished sixth in his first ever four-star.

Well deserved, big man!

Two in the top 15, one a homebred and the other a four-star machine (Shiraz has completed SEVEN four-stars without a single cross country penalty). Colleen must be SO proud.
