Boyd Martin came to the 2021 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) presented by Nutrena Feeds looking to defend his 2019 $60,000 Adequan USEA Advanced Final title and while he succeeded at the goal it wasn’t with the same mount. However, Martin’s victory lands him in the history books as the first rider to win the AEC Advanced class two times on two different horses.

Derek di Grazia’s challenging cross-country course shuffled the leaderboard in the $60,000 Adequan® USEA Advanced Final, with Fylicia Barr emerging as the new leader Barr, a West Grove, Pa. resident, was one of the quickest rides on a day when no one made the time with her own Galloway Sunrise, a 13-year-old American Warmblood mare (Duty Officer x Coco Chanel), who she bought for $500 off Craigslist.

In less than a week, 44 pairs will head down the centerline, gallop out of the start box, and clear the final show jump in an attempt to win a chunk of the prize money in the $60,000 Adequan® USEA Advanced Final at the 2021 USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds. The winner will take home $30,000, second place earns a nice $10,000, and the rest of the $20,000 will be distributed through 25^th place!

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is thrilled to announce the renewed partnership with longtime supporter American Regent Animal Health, maker of Adequan® i.m. (polysulfated glycosaminoglycan).

In partnership with Adequan, the United States Eventing Association (USEA) will once again host the $60,000 Adequan USEA Advanced Final at the 2020 USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds (AEC).

Boyd Martin and Long Island T (Ludwig von Bayern x Haupstsbuch Highlight), had two rails in hand going into the final phase of competition at the 2019 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) presented by Nutrena Feeds, but they didn’t need them as they jumped a flawless round over Bobby Murphy’s show jumping course to win the $60,000 Adequan USEA Advanced Final and USEF Advanced Horse Trials National Championship on a score of 32.0.

It’s the biggest ever event in North American history and the nearly 1,000 horses will all have the chance to jump around one of Derek di Grazia’s seven cross-country courses.

First up on this week's episode of the USEA Podcast, Future Event Horse Committee Co-Chair Susan Graham White comes on the show to discuss the judging seminars that will be offered this year at the East Coast and West Coast Championships taking place in September. These seminars are intended for current FEH judges to help improve the quality of FEH judging across the board.

Next week, hundreds of competitors will travel to the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky to compete at the 2019 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) on August 27 – September 1. Out of those competitors, 25 are entered to compete in the toughest division with the largest amount of prize money, the $60,000 Adequan® USEA Advanced Final.

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is excited to announce the renewed corporate partnership with longtime sponsor Adequan^® i.m. (polysulfated glycosaminoglycan) as “The Official Joint Therapy Treatment of the USEA.” American Regent Animal Health, manufacturer of Adequan®, has increased its support of the USEA to be able to offer unparalleled prize money in the Advanced division at the 2019 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC).
