We are deeply saddened at the loss of a great influence in the eventing world, as Patrick (Packy) McGaughan passed away Thursday night in his sleep at the age of 56. Packy was known for

I got excited about a warm spring day this week and had an afternoon free, so I set out with my dog and my thoroughbred, and hit the trails. Lucky for me, I have access

This weekend was my first trip to Red Hills, and I can assure you it won’t be my last. The scenery is gorgeous, and I got super lucky with perfect weather all three days. My
