Hunter/jumper show schedules might get an addition in 2015. There are some Rule Change Proposals on the docket intending to create two more Medal classes, the USHJA Hunter Seat Medal and the USHJA Jumping Seat Medal (if approved, these rule changes go into effect on Dec. 1, 2014).

In the wake of news that Clifton Promise, Jock Paget’s Land Rover Burghley CCI**** winner, tested positive for reserpine as well as Kevin McNab’s Burghley ride Clifton Pinot, we did some research on the drug.

In a statement released today by the Fédération Equestre Internationale, president HRH Princess Haya said she will not seek to amend to the federation’s term limit statute so that she can seek a third term, as had previously been expected.
