Fitch’s Corner Horse Trials, held last weekend in Millbrook, New York, has made the ‘Page 6’ gossip section of the New York Post. The Post reports that “socialites in saucy hats” consumed 5,000 bottles of wine and 5,000 pounds of ice (most of which were probably for mixed drinks) at the event. It then mentions some apparent socialites I haven’t heard of, and then of course the “dashing” Boyd Martin. From the New York Post:
“Socialites in saucy hats ruled the roost at Fernanda Kellogg and Kirk Henckels’ Fitch’s Corner Horse Trials in Millbrook over the weekend. Spectators ran through 5,000 bottles of vino and 5,000 pounds of ice over three days, while watching a record 280 horses compete. Spotted beneath tents, and brims, were Carolyne Roehm, CeCe Cord, Nina Griscom, Libet Johnson, Barbara and Donald Tober, and Jane and Bobby Hottensen. The nation’s dashing No. 1 rider, Boyd Martin, showed Neville Bardos for the first time since rescuing the horse from a fire last month that killed six others.”
