Good morning Eventing Nation! You may just pass this post by looking for the Burghley live coverage, and you know, I’m okay with that. Just means I can save my best stuff for later. (Which is great for me since I’m running out of “best”. I’ve got lots of “what on earth is she talking about” left though.)

Well, your Burghley quick links are on the right hand side of the webpage. Don’t miss those. Here at EN, we like to make it as easy as possible to procrastinate at work.

Day 2 of dressage starts underway at 9:30 local time (4:30 ET) with US rider Jules Stiller.
Jessica Phoenix is up next for North America riding at 4:45.
Back to the US it’s Michael Pollard riding at 6:00.
Kyle Carter rides at 7:22:30, and I sincerely hope he times that right. 🙂
And the lovely Sinead Halpin rounds out the North American riders at 7:45 ET.
