Eventing Nation has the coolest fans ever.  This screenshot was submitted by clb, and she references my This Doesn’t Sound Like Golfing At All post.

Meanwhile, the spring is turning to summer across Eventing Nation despite the fact that I rode in a jacket today here in central Virginia.  The six US events this weekend include some big event names running their spring horse trials.

Notes: Greater Dayton gets to be at the top of the list because Ohio eventing fans were loud and proud on last week’s ‘events this weekend’ post.  Greater Dayton is held at the same farm as Gemwood, which is the only event in Ohio I have ever attended.  It was a long time ago, but I remember a flat piece of property and a nice event.

Chattahoochee Hills (GA): Homepage, Schedule, Live Scores, Ride Times, Weather

Chattahoochee doesn’t have a 5-star this weekend, but they do have the Area III championships, a CIC1*, CIC2* and an advanced horse trials.  Will Coleman returns from his collar bone injury, riding in the advanced on both Nevada Bay and Twizzel, who is aiming for Luhmuhlen.  Jessica Pheonix returns from maternity leave and has two of Canada’s best horses (Exploring and Exponential) entered in the advanced. Mercifully, I will be at home this weekend, but Visionaire and Leslie are both planning to be at Chattahoochee.

Buck Davidson rides Cruise Lion and Karen rides the latest major addition to the O’Connor arsenal, Quintus 54.  Both horses are in the OI.
