It’s all helmets all the time at Pine Top
Good morning Eventing Nation! The Pine Top dressage was delayed an hour due to rain, but things are now underway here in Thomson, GA under partly cloudy and menacing skies. Fortunately at least two of my cameras are not soaked with rain. I spoke with an organizer who told me that despite the delay they hoped to stay on schedule with the show jumping and cross-country; the show jumping has started on schedule:
Show Jumping: 10:30am
Cross-country: 2:00pm
In other news, the Chronicle has written about Udonna, EN’s favorite grand-prix show jumper turned eventer
Also, Equestrian Sports New Zealand will seek special dispensation from the FEI for riders who planned to use this weekend’s Canterbury horse trials to qualify for FEI three-days this year. The event was postponed due to earthquake on Tuesday. [Horsetalk]
Samantha will be along shortly with the interview that Annie mentioned and I will have a full report from Pine Top this afternoon. Go eventing.
