Cross-Country Day’s Video Break and Other Notes

As cross-country gets underway today around Eventing Nation, here’s a quick look back at the Friday Galway dressage from Josh Walker and the USEA.  Galway cross-country starts bright and early this morning at 8:30am local time, 11:30am ET.  The CCI3* cross-country starts at 12:40pm local time with Buck Davidson and the experienced Ballynoecastle RM just ahead of Michael Pollard and his new ride Jude’s Law.

Here are a few more Saturday morning notes:

–Coren linked to the USEF press release earlier today, but it is worth a quick note that Buck and Michael received $8,000 in Land Rover competition grants to compete at Galway since the Pan Ams prevented them from competing at Fair Hill.  Kristin Schmolze and Ballylaffin Bracken received $6,000 to compete in the CCI2*.  Kristin and Ballylaffin Bracken served as Pan Am alternates.

–There is another three-day going on today in these United States of America.  The training three-day at Rocking Horse in Flo-ri-da.  Lauren Kieffer and Ron Ragan are leading after the cross-country on a 28.4.  [RH Scores]

–Lauren’s former horse, Woodrow III, leads the JYOP at Rubicon HT in Virginia on a 22.6 going into the cross-country.  [Rubicon Live Results]

Doug Payne took a tumble but landed on his feet and will be back competing in the second round tonight, which I am also told will be broadcast live online for free.
