Word is that the US team gallop on Friday morning went well. The mandatory jog following the gallop was held early Friday afternoon–all of the horses reportedly looked good and the US squad remains the same as the riders depart for Kentucky Friday afternoon. The US horses will leave Georgia around 1am ET Saturday, and the Canadian horses are scheduled to arrive at the KHP around 3pm Friday.
