Ladies Night at the $50,000 Wellington Equestrian Realty Grand Prix CSI 2*on January 19
Monday, January 21 2013
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

Wednesday, October 17 2012
By Jan Westmark-Allan Now that the November issue of Sideline s is on the news stands (you can see it free online if you have a print subscription also!) there are several stories that were cut from the issue because of space — but they are still great stories and I want to share them with you!! MiMi Falb wrote a wonderful on-the-scene story on the success that American eventers Sinead Halpin and Allison Springer had at the Burghley Horse Trials following the London Olympics. It’s a great story and we were thrilled with the success these two young ladies had. Enjoy the journey as you ride along with Mimi, Sinead and Allison!

More On The UCF Mascot “Pegasus” (And A Ride with Martha Stewart)
Monday, October 15 2012
By Jan Westmark-Allan During his tour with the World Famous Lipizzaners, Maluso II (known as Pegasus at the University of Central Florida) stopped by the Martha Stewart show – and the TV host jumped on for a ride! In my blog yesterday I shared the Sidelines Sidekick story from our November issue called “Maluso II: Big Horse on Campus.” The gorgeous Andalusian – a former star with the World Famous Lipizzaners – retired from his touring life and is now the mascot for the University of Central Florida, where he goes by the name of Pegasus! During his time with the World Famous Lipizzaners he appeared on the Martha Stewart show – and as you can see from the photo above, Martha jumped right on. (Martha is a horse lover and has her own horses.) Catherine Anne Cassidy, who was interviewed in our Sidekick story and was a knight that rode Pegasus at the UCF football games, also sent us a great collection of photos of Pegasus – and since only one photo could make it into the Sidelines November print issue, I am sharing them here
