Each Monday, “Weekend Winners” recognizes those special moments when hard work pays off in a blue ribbon. It’s an opportunity for our eventing community to celebrate one another’s successes, and enjoy a little moment in the spotlight when we find our own names on the page.
Kentucky Equine Research (KER) knows a little something about getting results. The company’s goals are to advance the industry’s knowledge of equine nutrition and exercise physiology, apply that knowledge to produce healthier, more athletic horses, and support the nutritional care of all horses throughout their life. We are excited to welcome them as the new title sponsor of “Weekend Winners” — we think it’s a fitting match.
This past week saw lots of USEA horse trial action from coast to coast. Aiken alone hosted two horse trials, Full Gallop mid-week and Sporting Days over the weekend, in addition to Grand Prix Eventing at Bruce’s Field (see EN’s coverage here). No rest for the wicked!
An extra congrats to our lowest scoring finishers in the country this weekend, Kendyl Tracy and Bobbie Burns, who won the Novice Horse-B division at Rocking Horse III on a score of 19.5. Well done! And now, your weekend winners:

Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant that improves aerobic energy generation while protecting against exercise-induced muscle damage. New Nano-Q10™ is a rapidly absorbed source of coenzyme Q10 that is three times more bioavailable than the powdered crystalline form. “The ability to quickly bounce back between phases is so important in eventing,” says international rider Liz Halliday-Sharp. “Coenzyme Q10 is a key nutrient for muscle health and recovery. I rely on Nano-Q10 from KER to ensure I’m supporting my winning event horses with the latest in equine nutrition science.” Learn more.
