Morning at Stable View Photo by Shelby Allen.
We are underway today at Stable View Oktoberfest, where an absolutely bursting roster of competitors spanning nearly every level is ready to tackle this perennial fall stop on the calendar. We’ll be bringing you a full report from the CCI4*-S division later this weekend, but in the meantime don’t forget that Horse & Country will be hosting a live stream (membership or streaming pass required) from show jumping this afternoon around 1:18 p.m. EST. You can follow along with the live stream here and with live scoring here. You can also check out our preview of the weekend that was published yesterday here. Good luck and Go Eventing to all!
