Jennifer Caras and Fernhill Stowaway, sitting in third on 52.0 in the two-star.
I wasn’t able to see much of the two-star dressage today…well, I would have seen more of it, if it weren’t for the traffic jam getting into the Horse Park this morning. It’s Breyerfest weekend, and hoardes of plastic horse lovers are out in droves. Wouldn’t you think they’d rather watch real, live horses competing this weekend? (The Rolex arena is completely empty, aside from a few teammates, grooms, and family members.) Don’t get me wrong… I loved my Breyers as a kid and enjoyed collecting them…but the mass hysteria over model horses escapes my understanding.
Nonetheless, I was able to catch some great rides today. Rowdie Adams and No Money Down put in a steady, accurate test to lie in second with a 50.9. Caroline Martin and Quantum Solace lead the division with a 50.2. Rounding out the top 3 is Jennifer Caras and Fernhill Stowaway, a flashy moving horse ridden nicely uphill to score a 52.0.
