Who Jumped It Best? Grand Oaks Preliminary Showdown

The inaugural USEA recognized horse trials at Grand Oaks Resort in Weirsdale, Florida concluded yesterday as a definite success. More than 250 starters enjoyed the fantastic 340-acre venue to kick off the season in Florida. If you didn’t compete this year, definitely put Grand Oaks on your calendar for 2019.

We’re pitting the junior and senior riders against each other in the first edition of Who Jumped It Best for 2018. Take a look at the photos from Open Preliminary and JYOP show jumping and vote in the poll at the bottom of the post for which horse and rider you think present the best overall picture over the fence. Go Eventing.
