The top four placings after dressage at Rolex: William Fox-Pitt in first, Andrew Nicholson holding second and third, and Allie Knowles in fourth.
It’s Rolex cross country day!! If the rest of Eventing Nation is anything like me, you’ve now watched William Fox-Pitt’s dressage test with Chilli Morning about ten times hoping you will learn by osmosis. That test was just beautiful. I hope everyone at Rolex is having a blast. I think cross country will be a big factor in the standings, so it will be interesting to see how much the scoreboard will shuffle around.
DON’T FORGET! All your Rolex needs will be met by moving your eyes to the right, and a little up, where we have all the links you could ever want. Additionally, the Rolex Guide 2013 will be updated all weekend long with all the information you can handle!
Red on Right, White on Left, Party in the Middle: Join Eventing Nation today at Rolex for our first annual Reader Appreciation Tailgate Party! Festivities include free beer (21 and up), drinks and snacks, plus fun games and EN swag!!!! Look for the red and white cross-country flags in the tailgate section, and stay tuned to EN for more details.
