Kadi Eycamp is competing two horses at Fair Hill– Double Rivers Really Cool in the CCI2*, and Double Rivers Dillon in the CCI3*. But maybe Kadi is giving up her shadbelly in favor of a cowboy hat?

Hi EN,
Just wanted to share quick story and video clip from our trip to Fair Hill. As everyone knows, travelling with horses long distances limits your choices of places to stay and is sometimes a bit of a lucky dip. Last night our stop over during our 1500 mile trip to Fair Hill from Texas, we stopped at a cutting horse farm in the hills of Tennessee just outside of Water Town and “lucked out”. Owner and long time trainer, Ted Barnes, was a real character with some great stories about his 40+ years of training horses including training world championship cutting horses for some of country music’s stars like Loretta Lynn. It was not long before he had me on one and then another (despite the fact we had been driving for 12 hours and it was well past 9pm!). It was great fun and the horses were incredible. Based on how much Ted was shouting at me no career change is on the horizon although I do look forward to having another shot. If anyone is travelling through in future I recommend stopping over at Ted’s for some great hospitality and stories!
