Reddick, Fla.—Nov. 15 If you wanted to move up the leaderboard at the Ocala Jockey Club International CCI4*-L today, you needed to be fast.

Reddick, Fla.—Nov. 16 If you’re superstitious, you might have heard the saying that bad things come in threes.

Ashlee Bond’s megawatt smile lit up the Del Mar Fairgrounds (California) a few weeks ago as she raced through the timers to win the $100,000 Longines FEI Del Mar World Cup qualifier. The victory was made even sweeter by the fact that her mount, 8-year-old Westphalian Donatello 141 (Diorado—Luna, Lamoureux I), is one she’s been […]
The Adequan West Coast Dressage Festival launched big in 2018 with multiple CDIs and masterclasses featuring dressage heavy hitters such as Charlotte Dujardin and Laura Graves.

The U.S. […]
Every night since he died I’ve dreamed of Gully. I have a thousand memories, all of them good. Some of them were only good in retrospect. The day he and his best friend, Syd, got loose at a horse trial, dive-bombed the adult beginner novice warm-up area, then cavorted on the cross-country course for half […]
