Monday Video from Total Saddle Fit: Peek at Some Final Kentucky Prep

It’s the week we’ve all been waiting for! Most horses are now en-route or are already settling in on the grounds of the Kentucky Horse park ahead of the big event this weekend, the 2019 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event, presented by MARS Equestrian.

Over the past few days many of the competitors were giving their horses final jump schools and gallops before hitting the road. Let’s take a peek into their last couple days of training:

Great day at Morningside Training Farm’s combined test! Billy ran through the 5* dressage test and jumped very well! I can’t thank Hannah enough for riding and focusing on Billy so much not only this week but every single day, helping him and I work through our tension as we prepare for Kentucky! @hannah_zaragoza_acres @antonio.salazar6 @rgandarillasalszar @emmakeahon @bernbern17 @marietalley @evy.weaver @joan8730 @darylnuesch #UnmarkedBills #ZaragozaAcres #MorningsideTrainingFarm

Willingapark Clifford has really settled in at Valley View farm now and he’s feeling great. We had a showjump this morning and here’s a line we ran through. A triple bar, 4 strides to a plank, 1 stride to an oxer. Clifford worked really hard to leave the rails up #willingapark #showjumping #kentuckythreedayevent #preparation #arenaenvy
