Does any one know why? Were there not enough entries? Was it because of Inavale. I know of several people who would have made the trek to Inavale if they knew RF wasn't going to run it. Any word?
TB or not TB?

Its definatly a bummer, but if you really want to to a training three day there is always coconino(flagstaff, az)...it is really fun and they do a very good job. The footing is awesome and the course is up to standard. The best part of the event is that it is in the trees so the temperature is usually in the 70's (low humidity)even in the middle of the summer. Steeplechase is on the track so the footing is good and you can really get the feel of going fast. I went there last year and had a blast. I did both weekends and it was really neat. During the week you can go to the grand canyon(on a train... lots of fun) hang out, and there is jump schooling on the day before the event starts. check their website at www.coconinohorsetrials.com

Any word on the one in Ocala? I'm concerned about it, with all the troubles the Florida Horse park has been having.

As a midwesterner that thinks of anything over 4 hours away as "far" I can't imagine planning on going from a state on the northern most boundary of the US to one on the Southern most boundry!
However, both states have two of my favorite places (Greater Yellowstone ecosytem and the Grand Canyon) so it's always good to visit either state!
I'm sorry that Rebecca Farms had to cancel, I'm sure it was not an easy decision for them.
