Today’s the big day for our four American pairs at Luhmühlen. Jennie Brannigan and Cambalda, Marilyn Little and RF Demeter, Jolie Wentworth and Good Knight, and Julian Stiller and Enjoy Me will all take on the very competitive field in their dressage tests in the CCI4*. Thanks to the time change, the CCI4* dressage will be well underway by the time you read this, and we’ll update you throughout the day on how our Americans fare in their tests. I have to give a shout out to our guest bloggers Kate Miller and Jackie Imholte, awesome photographers Sherry Stewart and Thomas Ix, and press guru Heather Reimer for keeping us updated here in the states. Go Team USA!
