1 Spun, 24 5* Horses Accepted in First Maryland 5 Star Horse Inspection

We are through the first horse inspection here at the MARS Maryland 5 Star, presented by Brown Advisory, but the jog was not without its dramatics for the 5* horses.

A total of 24 5* horses will move forward to dressage, which begins for both the 3* and 5* tomorrow, the 5* field thinned by one after Liz Halliday-Sharp‘s Deniro Z was sadly not accepted by the Ground Jury of Christian Landolt (SUI), Gretchen Butts (USA), Judy Hancock (GBR).

Also withdrawn prior to the jog were Great Britain’s Leslie Law and Voltaire de Tre.

In the USEF 3*-L National Championship, all horses presented were accepted by the Ground Jury of Peter Gray (CAN) and Valerie Pride (USA).
