USEA High Score Horses of All Time

By on Jan 4, 2013 11:09 am -

Once again, the historical high score report for horses registered with the USEA has been calculated, and this year the ranks have been shook up a little bit. Becky Holder’s wonderful mount Courageous Comet topped off a phenomenal final year with a strong move into 3rd place, just topping recent Hall of Fame inductee Giltedge. The indomitable Winsome Adante still holds strong in the lead, as he has for many years now, and is followed by the amazing Windfall. If you’re looking for a list of unbelievable athletes, look no further than here.

Another big mover this year was Buck Davidson’s Ballynoe Castle RM, who climbed all the way from 19th last year to 8th place this year with over 200 points earned. Allison Springer’s Arther jumped into the ranks to sit in 20th, as he wasn’t even on the top 50 list last year. Caitlin Silliman’s new ride Remington XXV rose from 40th to 25th place, and Karen’s comeback king Mandiba moved up 17 spots to 29th place overall.

Current “USA #1” Manoir de Carneville entered the top 50 with his stellar year, to sit in 32nd place with 662 points. Also entering the top 50 are Fleeceworks Mystere du Val, who won the NAJYRC CCI* with Tori New this year, Selena O’Hanlon’s Colombo, and the west coast whirlwind Jumbo’s Jake.

Is there anybody out there who is handy with bloodlines? I would really like to have an analyst look at the commonalities between horses on this list. The only thing that I notice is that the vast majority are Thoroughbreds, go OTTB’s!
