On Cue has been on fire in 2021: The mare came into this spring’s Land Rover Kentucky CCI5*-L in the shadow of Boyd Martin’s two other, more experienced Olympic hopefuls and came out of the event as the highest-place mare and, with Martin, the Land Rover/USEF CCI5*-L national champions as the highest-placed U.S. pair. Her […]

Harrisburg, Pa.—Oct. 17 After four rounds of jumping, Grace Debney proved herself the most consistent out of 223 riders who contested the Dover Saddlery/USEF Hunter Seat Medal Final. Of course, it wasn’t easy. After two rounds of jumping and a test of the top four riders, the judges called for an uncommon second test of […]
Elkton, Md.—Oct. 17 As Boyd Martin and On Cue made their way around Ken Krome’s show jumping course today, it didn’t sound like they were likely to win the inaugural Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill. The 15-year-old Anglo European mare (Cabri D’Elle—On High, Primitive Rising) tapped her way around the course, with several rails rattling precariously in […]
Elkton, Md.—Oct. 17 The second horse inspection of a three-day event is always a stressful time. Riders, support crew, owners and spectators all hold their breath waiting to hear that their horse was accepted. The Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill was no different. While there were a few tense moments as the ground jury […]
We’re here in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, yet again for the Dover Saddlery/USEF Hunter Seat Medal Final, where 223 of the country’s top junior riders aspire to win one of the most elusive equitation titles. We’ll try and post every 10 riders or so, with updates on how the course is riding, who has done well, who hasn’t, […]

Harrisburg, Pa.—Oct. 16 In order to win in the Neue Schule/USEF Junior Jumper National Championship, just being good wasn’t enough: You had to be nearly perfect. Hannah Hoch and Shariva were just that, not touching a rail over four rounds of jumping to finish on top. Natalie Jayne, 17, kept all the rails in the […]
Elkton, Md.—Oct. 16 There was a lot of trepidation heading into cross-country day for the Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill. The world’s other six five-star competitions have been around for years and have well-established reputations. Riders knew which type of horse each would suit. But at Maryland, much was unknown. Although the Fair Hill International four-star […]
Ravi, my fiancé, and I just spent five days in Seattle, a place neither of us had ever been. Prior to this trip, we’d taken a three-day outing to Kansas City, and a few two-day trips to Washington, D.C., and that’s been it for the two of us. I got to spend a weekend in Savannah […]
