Dressage at the 2017 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event, presented by Land Rover, is complete. It is absolutely thrilling to see Clark Montgomery and Loughan Glen at the top of the leaderboard ahead of reining champs Michael Jung and fischerRocana FST.
The scores overall are extremely close, with ten points separating third and 30th place. Tomorrow’s course is a monster and we expect to see plenty of combinations taking care in the high temperatures expected for the day.
It was a bittersweet end to the dressage phase as Allison Springer and her incredible partner Arthur trotted down the center line in the Rolex arena for the final time. They received a heartfelt standing ovation and the deafening applause continued as they took their final lap. We’ll certainly miss this pair.
