We couldn’t have asked for a nicer weekend for one of the fall’s biggest U.S. events. Plantation Field posted several pictures on its Facebook page of spectators enjoying the great weather while tailgating during cross country yesterday. Today will prove to be an exciting finish in the CIC3*, with Karen O’Connor and Mandiba adding just 1.2 time penalties on cross country to hold a slim lead over Will Faudree and Pawlow. The Advanced division wrapped up yesterday, with Clark Montgomery and Loughan Glen picking up 3.2 time penalties on cross country to win handily on a 28. The CIC Show Jumping starts at 9:30 a.m. this morning, with the CIC3* show jumping set to begin at 1:30 p.m.
