In some non-WEG news, four US riders are scheduled to travel to the Boekelo CCI3* in the Netherlands from October 14th to the 17th with funding from a USEF training grant. The Boekelo funding was announced earlier this year as part of the USEF’s developing riders efforts.

The horses are scheduled to leave the US on the 9th. The USEF will cover travel expenses and other incentives based on the final placings. Of course, we will have inside coverage of the Boekelo trip, but, due to WEG mania, this will probably be the last that we will write about Boekelo until after the Games, unless there is a last minute change to the list of horses being sent. Read more about Sinead’s travel plans on her blog. Hopefully the Boekelo trip will go better for the US than Blenheim, where none of the horses who shipped to Blenheim from the US finished without a stop. Go eventing.
