Jennie Brannigan and Indie are the overnight leaders in the CCI2*
Good morning, Eventing Nation! I’m taking over for Jenni today at Fair Hill. Jenni has been doing a fantastic job of bringing you all the latest news from the weekend’s events, and I hope to continue that trend.
The 2* and 3* horses jogged this morning. You can see live scores HERE.

In the 2*, both of Caroline Martin’s horses, Quantum Solace, and Petite Flower, were held. Quantum Solace was withdrawn, while Petite Flower passed upon re-inspection. Kelly Sult and Montgomery withdrew before the start of the jog and Robin Walker’s Freedom’s Light was held, but passed the second time around. Wolf, Susan Beebee’s mount, was held as well, but also passed after seeing the jury for a second time. They made Doug Payne jog Crown Talisman three times before accepting him. Doug says that Tali was jogging funny due to some girth sores from the mud and cross country yesterday. Kudos to Doug, I would have had to have someone else take over by round two. Charles Plumb withdrew Ard Denzil from the holding box as well.
Boyd Martin and Crackerjack are in seventh.
In the CCI***, Marilyn Little had RF Smoke on the Water held, but passed upon re-inspection. Jan Byyny had one of her rides, Syd Kent, held, but he too passed the second time around. Jennie Brannigan’s mount for the 3*, No Objection, also made a trip to the holding area, but passed as well. Heather Gillette withdrew Our Questionnaire before the beginning of the jogs.
Hannah Sue Burnett leads the CCI*** with Harbour Pilot
Laine Ashker jogged a very enthusiastic Anthony Patch. They're currently in fifth.
Marilyn Little is in fourth with RF Demeter (shown) and second with RF Smoke on the Water.
Show jumping for the CCI2* begins at 10, followed by the PRO Bareback jumping contest during the lunch break, and after that we will have the CCI3* show jumping. All divisions will be in reverse order of standing, for extra nail biting action!
