USEF Network LRK3DE Remix: Best Kentucky XC Round of the Decade?

By on Apr 25, 2020 4:49 pm -

Photos via the EN archives.

Ah, I know. We ought to have been out there today. Cheering riders on through hits and misses at the Head of the Lake. Getting our hearts broken when a legend takes a tumble, and then stitched back up again when a rookie takes the course by storm. Taking selfies with Chinch and imbibing mimosas and cookie cake at the EN tailgate.

But rather than dwell on what we’re missing, today is the day to celebrate what we’ve got — and that includes so many memories from Kentucky Three-Days past, still as polished and sparkling as the winner’s trophy. A mirror of our sport’s strength, resilience and spirit, and that of its human and equine athletes.

Lucky for us, throughout this week USEF Network is allowing us to take a road trip down memory lane, rebroadcasting footage of legend Kentucky performances from the past decades.

If you’re not already a USEF Member, you can use a special promo code for EN readers — ENLRK3DE — to watch all the videos for free! If you missed today’s re-broadcast of the 2012 event, with interviews throughout from John Kyle and featuring Boyd Martin and Allison Springer, check it out here. And it’s never too late (or too early) to sample Tilly Berendt‘s five-star inspired Kentucky tailgate cocktail recipes here!

The other day we ran a reader poll to vote for the best Kentucky dressage test of all time. The winner, by a fraction of a percentage point of the vote over Lauren Kieffer and Veronica in 2016, was Allison Springer and Arthur in 2014.

Let’s keep the ball rolling with a cross country poll. Of the following rounds from 2011 to 2019: which do you think was the best?

Guess what? ALL of those tests, along with many more, are available on the USEF Network website. Click on any image below to be taken to the video of that round, or just head on over to USEF Network and go exploring yourself. You can even take a deep dive into ride reviews, favorite memories, interviews and other special features. Thank you for keeping the Kentucky spirit alive, USEF Network!

Editor’s Choice: My Top 5 Virtual Vendor Village Deals for Saturday

By on Apr 25, 2020 3:04 pm -

Each day we’ll be bringing you new deals from over 30 companies via EN’s inaugural Virtual Vendor Village (shop Saturday’s deals here), and each day I’ll be sharing my top five favorite deals of the day. Here we go for Saturday!

P.S. You can check out Jumper Nation editor Lynn Mueller’s top 5 picks here, and Horse Nation editor DeAnn Long Sloan’s top 5 picks here.

FITS: FITS breeches are the Lululemon of  riding pants. They’re so comfy, you could literally sleep in them (and tbh I’m sure I HAVE slept in mine before), but they’re also high-functioning and attractive too. (A compliment I also get all the time too, LOL, JK.) The Olivia Full Seat Tread Breech gives you a gorgeous silhouette in the saddle with Euro seat styling, silky soft fabric, a front zip closure, two slash pockets and FITS’ printed technology silicone grip so you can sit that trot like a champ. And they’re 20% off today, so come and get ’em!

Jane Heart Jewelry: Mother’s Day is coming up (May 10) … what’s your plan? Any horse-loving mom would appreciate a ring from Jane Heart Jewelry, and this week you can save 15% with code ring15.  Jane Heart Jewelry Collections that are cast, hand finished and hand polished by a master silversmith here in the USA … a rare find. Just gonna drop a little hint to my husband here that I love ALL of Jane’s horsehead rings AND the Sterling Silver Signet Ring, because I am a monogram-all-the-things kind of girl. Shop the ring collection here. Also … HAPPY BIRTHDAY JANE!!!

Voltaire: Voltaire all the things! When I think about Voltaire design I think about saddles, but they also have a huge selection of accessories and they’ll all 20% off with free shipping this week. Girths, bridles, reins, saddle pads, stirrup leathers, breastplates and martingales, leather care products, saddle covers, dry bags, umbrellas, socks, bags, stirrups, ear bonnets, stirrups, bags and wallets … come and get it today!

AtelierCG: Here’s another perfect (and Wylie endorsed, hint-hint) Mother’s Day offer — 15% off with code BEYOU at AtelierCG. This company has a number of gorgeous products — among them jewelry, small leather goods and tee shirts — but what we’re drawing attention to today is their handbag collection. SO luxe, and pragmatic, including this beautifully crafted ride holster that is perfect for trail riding, walking the dog or chasing their kids. I’ve been only semi-joking to my husband since we had our baby on Kentucky cross country day last April that I needed a fanny pack, as I’m CONSTANTLY losing my phone, my keys, my mind? — and how convenient would it be to just have the essential stuff strapped onto your person at all times. Doesn’t help the losing of my mind, but at least it’s a start!

Perri’s Leather: Speaking of top shelf leather goods, these suede zip half chaps from Perri’s Leather are only $30 (regularly $50.95) with code ZIP. You know Perri’s from their Kentucky booth — the one with the gorgeous Amish handcrafted halters and leads? Well these are their best-selling half-chaps, crafted from supple suede cowhide and featuring reinforced inner legs and stretch panels, which provide a near custom fit and help the chap form to your legs for peak performance and comfort. Snag ’em for $20 off NOW!

#EventerProblems Vol. 224, Presented by Haygain: The Week That Could’ve Been

By on Apr 25, 2020 1:55 pm -

There’s been plenty of #EventerProblems to go around lately, but none seem to sting more than missing our favorite week of the year at Kentucky. Let’s stay out of that sadness spiral, eh? Here’s your latest round ups of mishaps, eventer style:

𝐀𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 ’𝐍𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐟, 𝐧𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞’… Or if the horse pulls off all his hoof, we need to make a replacement? ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You may have seen on my stories recently, Boyce has managed to pull off 4 shoes in 3 weeks. Which is a new record for him! So this has left him with very little hoof to nail the shoes onto. After reviewing several options with my farrier we have gone for filler in his feet, with a mixture of Kevlar (which is the material used to make bullet proof vests), a setting agent and some super glue! He has filler on 3 feet, left fore is currently going strong (my current favourite limb 🤣). Hopefully this will keep the shoes securely on his feet and allow new hoof growth to nail into in the future🤞🤞🤞.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ My farrier Tom is amazing! Especially over the last few weeks with Boyce taking shoes off left right and centre, plus with this current situation, he certainly has been a lockdown superstar for us! #teamshayler #eventerproblems #eventinglife #eventer #equestrain #equestrainlife #farrier #equestrainblogger #nohoofnohorse #farriersofinstagram #horseshoe #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #hoof

USEF/USEA Extend Suspension of Competitions Through May 31

By on Apr 25, 2020 8:10 am -

The USEF has extended its suspension of competitions, which was most recently extended through May 3, through May 31. You can view a list of May USEA Horse Trials still on the calendar that this suspension will impact here. The USEA Board of Governors voted to follow suit and all USEA recognized events and educational activities are suspended through May 31, 2020.

USEF issued the following statement this morning:

“Dear USEF Members and Competition Organizers (Licensees and Managers),

“We continue to carefully monitor the COVID-19 Pandemic situation and the position of health experts, including the CDC and other public health authorities. It appears that in several areas of the country, restrictions put in place by State Governors, such as the “stay-at-home” orders, are making a positive difference. Federal, state and local governments are discussing plans for re-opening the environment in the near future. However, this will not occur overnight and will very likely consist of a graduated easing of restrictions over several weeks, which may vary greatly state-to-state, as well as within the states themselves.

“The success of these plans is predicated on a mindful and responsible approach to easing restrictions while also maintaining best practices that we have all learned and adopted in order to reduce exposure to and transmission of the COVID-19 virus. Once USEF competitions resume, we must all continue to support and maintain these best practices as part of our daily activities to help prevent further disruptions to our lives. We hope that resumption of competition comes soon.

“With that in mind, the suspension of all USEF owned and named events, selection trials, training camps, clinics and activities is being extended through May 31, 2020. This suspension also includes points, scores, money won, qualifications, or rankings toward any USEF award programs, USEF owned and named events, or selection to a US team including USEF National Championships. Upon the expiration of this suspension, competitions must comply with requirements issued by USEF for operating sport horse competitions in this environment.

“Collaborating with competition organizers, affiliate leaders and other industry experts, USEF has been developing competition protocols for safely operating competitions and mitigating the risks associated with COVID-19. Once finalized, we will be providing all competition organizers with these protocols as well as other risk mitigation tools for their use. These tools and resources will also be front-facing on our website and accessible by all members and website visitors.

“We have been working on amendments to qualification and selection processes for numerous USEF owned and named events as well as how USEF HOTY awards and ranking lists are calculated. We have started announcing modifications that will make the process as fair as possible for all participants, despite the disruption to the competition year and the likelihood of a staggered regional start-up.

“We have received inquiries as to whether USEF will grant exemptions to the junior competitor age restrictions, equine age restrictions and equine eligibility restrictions based on competitive experience. While these topics are being discussed, it is still too early to make definitive conclusions regarding these issues.

“We will continue to assess the pandemic impact, and we will keep you informed of any updates to our position as circumstances warrant or as instructed by the government and public health authorities.

“The safety and welfare of our members and their horses must continue to be our top priority.

“Stay safe,

William J. Moroney, Chief Executive Officer”

These moments will return. Photo by JJ Sillman.

If today — what would have been cross country day at the 2020 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event — had gone as planned we would have all woken up with our stomachs knotted and butterflies ready to bust their way out, hardly able to wait until the first horse left the start box. Instead, we’re left with that pitted and heartbroken feeling over what should have been. Don’t beat yourself up too much for feeling sad today — you’re allowed to grieve the loss of what would have been!

Do be sure to set aside some time today, however, to celebrate the past runnings of the event and enjoy some of the footage from years past that US Equestrian has made available. (If you’re not already a USEF member, use promo code ENLRK3DE to access.) If you feel like drowning your sorrows over this year’s event whilst watching said footage, never fear! We’ve got you covered on that front too, thanks to our own journalist turned mixologist, Tilly Berendt, who has cooked up nine Kentucky-inspired cocktails for your enjoyment.
