Ladies Night at the $50,000 Wellington Equestrian Realty Grand Prix CSI 2*on January 19

Ladies Night at the $50,000 Wellington Equestrian Realty Grand Prix CSI 2*on January 19 By Kim MacMillan, MacMillan Photography & Media Services When the last fence was jumped in the nine rider jump-off on Saturday night three young ladies topped the 56-entry field that included riders from 14 countries. The line-up included, among others, international stars such as Mario Deslauriers, Margie Engle, Kent Farrington, Laura Kraut, Ian Miller, Rodrigo Pessoa and McLain Ward. Reed Kessler, at 18 the youngest Olympian to date at last summer’s London Games, riding her 13-year-old Swedish Warmblood gelding Ligist (Levantos II – Robin Z) made neat work of the jump off, blazing over the fences and tripping the finish timer in 37.81 to take top money. Less than a second behind her was Katie Dinan on Grant Road Partner’s 11-year-old Selle Francais gelding Nougat Du Vallet (by Scherif D’Elle out of Camme Du Vallet). The final pair in the jump-off Brianne Goutal and Remarkable Farm’s 11-year-old Selle Francais Nice de Prissey (by Rosire out of Trophee De Prissey) gave it their all, but they stopped the clock at 38.53 to capture third

Gold Coast Opener Grand Prix CDI-W Provides Preview of World Dressage Masters Competitors
Monday, January 21 2013
by Editor
Wellington, FL – January 18, 2013 - Today’s Gold Coast Opener Grand Prix CDI-W showcased horses and riders preparing for next weekend’s World Dressage Masters (WDM) CDI5* Palm Beach, and the WDM competitors certainly displayed their dominance. WDM entrants swept all six ribbons in the Grand Prix, with all but one riding the horses they will compete next weekend. And if the results from today are a predictor, it seems that Sweden will be a force to be reckoned with.

A Look at WEF – And Riding the Carousel!
Sunday, January 20 2013
by Editor
By Jan Westmark-Allan The new beautiful carousel at the entrance to the Winter Equestrian Festival Take one look at the pictures of the Venetian carousel and you might think it’s a photo from Disney World – but no, that would be the new carousel at the entrance to the Winter Equestrian Festival. WEF has always been a wonderful horsey place where dreams come true (just like Disney) and now Mark Bellissimo, who heads up Equestrian Sports Productions and is the man behind WEF, has made everyone’s dreams a little brighter with the carousel

A Primer on Attending a USEF Convention – by Kim MacMillan

by Editor
A Primer on Attending a USEF Convention By Kim MacMillan I’d lay odds that almost none of us have ever contemplated the matrix of organization, planning and administration it takes to provide a centerline for us to trot down or a course to jump at our favorite shows and events. The United States Equestrian Federation (USEF, our national governing body for equestrian sport in the U.S.A.) just takes our dues, records our show points and e-mails us a magazine every so often, right? Well, actually, there’s a whole lot more to running the horse show world in our country
