Link: Burghley Live Scores–6am to 11am ET
It’s crunch time across Eventing Nation and especially at Burghley. In my book, Burghley is the toughest CCI4* course in the world, and even though the word is that Burghley course designer Mark Phillips has toned the course down a bit this year, there is sure to be movement throughout the leader board on Saturday.
The lone US pair of Michael Pollard and Wonderful Will are tied for 25th after the dressage and are scheduled to start XC at 7:56am ET.
The XC will be viewable online for free through Burghley TV, but I don’t think it will be live and I don’t know how quickly they will post the video after the rides. Of course we will have a full recap Saturday afternoon.

XC Preview
There are of course lots of other events this weekend. Here at Five Points the weather has been hot but the Carolina Horse Park is hosting a wonderful event. US short listers Holly Hudspeth and Last Monarch are doing the combined test down here, just like Holly explained in her most recent EN blog. Last Monarch looked fantastic and relaxed Friday in the dressage and scored a 34.
Go eventing.
