Ingate

Peter Leone joined members of the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association Board of Directors at their annual meeting in Orlando to share a great story. The Olympic Silver Medalist’s curiosity inspired him to give the “old college try” to the collegiate competition format. He also joined the IHSA board meeting to celebrate the launch of his new book, Peter Leone’s Show Jumping Clinic: Success Strategies for Equestrian Athletes, written by Leone and Kimberly S. Jaussi, PhD, herself an avid rider, writer and coach Photo courtesy Phelps Media Group

Catching up:  Holly Hugo-Vidal says she’s excited to be back in California, having returned from North Carolina and opened up shop at Showpark, in Del Mar, where she plans to have a small group of riders. Holly also will continue to judge and give clinics.  She has brought her two Frenchies, who have acquired a love for the beach.  Holly lives in Rancho Santa Fe around the bend from Arthur Hawkins.

Bernie Traurig, along with Scott Hofstetter, Nona Garson and Linda Andrisani, judged the hunt seat divisions of the College Preparatory Invitational.  Robert Dover judged the dressage competition, a new addition to the event in its second year.  Read about Bernie’s newest venture in the next issue of Sidelines.

Cornelia Guest is a girl of many talents.  She now has a line of jewelry and handbags that will be carried by some high end horse show vendors. “Nell” has teamed up with her old partner Mason Phelps to promote her new products and we expect to see her around the horse shows by the end of season.  Welcome back Nell.

And speaking of Mason, Karen Robinson has written his biography.  Now this is sure to be a best seller!

While we’re plugging books, we must mention that Olympic Silver Medalist, Peter Leone, has a new book due out in April that’s sure to be a winner.  Peter Leone’s Show Jumping Clinic:  Success Strategies for Equestrian Athletes, written by Leone and Kimberly S. Jaussi, PhD, explores every aspect of riding from the basics of correct use of aids through the psychology of approaching a World Cup course.

We hear the medics were called in when a trainer and his groom got into a fist fight recently at one of the big winter circuits.  Ouch – now that is a bit much, don’t you think.

Do you believe that James H. Fairclough, II joined HISTORY’s Full Metal Jousting for its inaugural season?  The 10 part series features full contact jousts with competitors going head-to-head on horseback in brutal tests of strength, endurance and courage.  High speed cameras capture every punishing blow as jousters charge and collide at 30 miles per hour, with their combat not being choreographed at all.  The last man standing takes home a $100,000 cash prize.  Um…that last man standing part sounds a bit ominous to us… 

The Other Side of the Pond:  Eurospy tells us that Bruce Hewett, the Equine Osteopath who regularly flies into the USA to treat clients, is now finding that he is as much in demand in the dressage world and in particular with Lusitanos.  Firstly, he was invited down to Windsor to treat horses owned by Pinky Heintz for whom Peter Storr, one of the leading UK riders used to compete.  We hear his newest client is Neno Baptiste, one of the leading dressage trainers and riders in Portugal.

Ben Maher who recently separated from his wife (after a rather brief union) enjoyed a wonderfulOlympia with spectacular results, is currently inWellington with a team of horses.

Skye Higgin, a local girl who was formerly based with Dave Quigley (Ire), and whose Mother Emma Higgin regularly writes an entertaining blog on www.thehorseexchange.com is thoroughly enjoying her time in Wellington and has discovered the joys of ‘Players Club’ and is causing quite a stir with her English accent and quintessential English rose looks, amongst the men folk.

Tim Stockdale is on the mend having spent five weeks flat on his back in the local Orthopaedic hospital, Gobowen with a broken neck.  He is recovering well and has allegedly decided to take action against the owners of the horse he fell from.  It is reported he was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident.  (Maybe this would explain why no sense has been knocked into him, to be quite frank).  Had it not been for the immediate response and medical knowledge of the staff on site at the time, he would almost certainly have been paralysed.  Tim did express his extreme gratitude before taking steps to sue.

Bumps and bruises:  McLain Ward had a bad fall recently in an early grand prix at the Winter Equestrian Festival.  He is out for ten to twelve weeks with multiple fractures of the patella.  He’ll have to miss the Olympic trials, but with any luck the selectors will give him a “by” and keep him on the Olympic short list.

Horse Show News:  The 2012 Gene Mische American Invitational, presented by G & C Farm returns toTampa’s Raymond James Stadium on Saturday, April 7, at 7:30 pm.  This year marks the 40th anniversary of this enduring classic and promises to be a magical night of show jumping as the world’s greatest riders and horses gather in theTampaBay area to decide the American Invitational title.

While at the FEI World Cup Finals, a woman approac While at the FEI World Cup Finals, a woman approached the Attwood Equestrian Surfaces booth. She got so excited when she realized they were attending and had to tell them how her Pinnacle footing was working for her facility in Colorado. She said 

"I'm skeptical about a lot of things, so I was curious to see how Pinnacle 
would perform and if it would really make a difference in dust and 
comfort. My horse is 15 years old, and the first day he stepped on that 
footing, I've never seen him move better a day in his life! He has 
brittle, sore feet and this footing has totally changed how he 
goes...and it is TRULY dust free!"

That's why universities, rehabilitation centers, and therapy barns all 
choose Pinnacle. It really does make a difference! Pinnacle can be 
installed in indoor and outdoor arenas and never needs to be watered.

At the beginning of March, we headed off to Aiken, South Carolina, for the Grand Prix Eventing Festival. This was the fifth running of the showcase-style event and my fourth time there, and it’s a competition that I always look forward to. What makes this event so unique is that it’s held in the compact grounds of Bruce’s Field and is run through a mixture of grass and surfaced arenas, making it an ideal venue for spectators to enjoy all three phases of our sport. 

This year was no exception, and many of the best riders in the country came to compete. I was thrilled to have three of my best horses there, who all performed well, and it was especially great to take the win with Miks Master C. This was my third time winning the competition on three different horses, which was very exciting! 

I find that our sport keeps changing all of the time, and I do believe that these “showcase” style events are a fantastic addition for spectators, riders and horses. I would like to see a few more of them throughout the season, and while I still love the traditional version of eventing, these shorter, more compact competitions could have a real place going forward.
