We are now in the middle of deep summer across much of Eventing Nation this weekend. If you are competing or even just riding in extreme heat, be sure to keep your horse’s hydration and temperate at the front of your mind.
I’ll be competing at an undisclosed event this weekend. My name is Boyd Martin, please come and pour cold water on my head.
I’d like to give a shout out to the Olney Farm horse trials which needs a few more entries to run on July 31st. This is a farm-based, very old Maryland event geared towards kids on ponies and ammies on greenies — easy courses, family oriented, over 20 years in existence, run by Ami Howard on her family’s 4th generation farm where they raise Shetland ponies. For more information, visit the USEA’s omnibus page.
