Zara Rides (and Wins) Again: While other well-known Brits were competing (and winning) in Kentucky over the weekend, Zara Phillips and Mr Murt won their Intermediate ride at Bicton Arena on Sunday. This was her first victory since giving birth to her daughter Mia. Go Zara! [Horse & Country]

Video of the Day: This footage of the 2014 Rolex victory gallop might be a bit shaky at times, but that’s because I was trying to applaud while filming this truly awesome group of athletes celebrating the victories and milestones achieved over the weekend.
