Here are the promised marathon photos. I’ve included six photos here and am saving several of my favorite shots for a blog post on Monday that will recap the entire event. So be sure to check back!
Caroline Whittle is leading the intermediate-level pony pair class
Misdee Wrigley Miller
Suzy Stafford and Courage to Lead, who won an individual bronze medal at this year’s FEI World Pony Driving Championships
Lisa Stroud and her team of ponies
Boyd Exell won the marathon phase in the FEI-level horse team class …
… but Chester Weber is still leading the FEI-level four-in-hand drivers (horses). Tomorrow’s cones course will decide the winners of all these classes and more, as well as six USEF National Championships

We read that Wendi O’Brien eliminated in Dressage in the Lexington CDE. Can you say what happened? The gossip going around is that her horse wore a quarter sheet into the arena in all that rain, and that got them the big E.

That is true. She was driving a pair of ponies and entered the arena with sheets on them.

Oh, my goodness! I didn’t know of that rule! I only knew that boots weren’t allowed in dressage. Wow!
