Three-day Event

Despite sheets of cold rain that drenched competitors and spectators on cross-country day, the reviews were good for an event that has often struggled, but now seems to be on the right track.

The world’s most successful three-day event rider earned his third straight victory in the USA’s only 4-star with a ride that wasn’t perfect, but did the trick.

A beloved fixture at the Kentucky Horse Park marks its 20th anniversary as a 4-star, but the big time eventing action actually predates it to 1978, when the venue hosted the World Eventing Championships.
