Dressage has concluded! Two days of fancy movements in a tiny white box and I think it’s safe to say that everybody is waiting on pins and needles for tomorrow. An American is leading the after the dressage phase at Badminton for the first time in…I can’t even remember, which is incredibly exciting! Michael Pollard is winning the CCI3* at Jersey Fresh, Doug Payne is winning the CIC3* as a prep before Saumur, Emily Beshear is winning the CCI2* and Lauren Kieffer is holding both first and second place in the CIC2*! Let’s see what’s been happening behind the scenes!

In a strange turn of events, we actually have a mascot battle going on between the Jersey Jackalope and the EN Chinch!
