Jumpers at Land Rover Kentucky: Preview of the Kentucky CSI3* Invitational Grand Prix

We’re all anxiously awaiting the start of the Land Rover Kentucky Three Day Event in just a few days. But while our attention has been on the 5* entry list, we’re also seeing an exciting roster for the jumpers in the Kentucky CSI3* Invitational Grand Prix, presented by Hagyard Equine Medical Institute. Competition will begin with a 1.45m Speed Class, scheduled to take place on Friday, April 28th after the completion of dressage for the 5* eventing competition, as well as the 1.60m Invitational Grand Prix on Saturday, April 29th.
