For the first time in the 19-year history of the USEA American Eventing Championships Presented by Nutrena Feeds (AEC), all jumping rounds on both cross-country and show jumping are being live streamed. Every class from Beginner Novice through Advanced has been live streamed, and individual videos, or “clips,” are available for purchase from USEA partner Horse & Country (H&C).

“We heard about some confusion floating around the barns and in the vendor village at the AEC regarding the availability of purchase of each ride, especially the cross-country,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk. “It has always been the intent of the USEA and the Organizers of the AEC, Equestrian Events Inc. and Mary Fike, to make this event as accessible as possible. We are grateful to H&C for making all rounds available for both livestream and individual purchase to our members and their supporters.”

While incredible streaming packages can be purchased from H&C, including downloadable video clips for all competitions they film each year, individual clips of each full AEC ride may be purchased online for $25 each. Additionally, H&C+ Gold Members have access to unlimited clips for download free of charge.

“Horse & Country is very happy to provide exclusive livestream and on-demand coverage of this prestigious event, and we fully understand the importance for exhibitors and spectators to be able to memorialize their favorite rounds,” shared H&C Director of Strategic Partnerships, North America, Tattie Singer. “Anyone wishing to purchase a clip can visit the H&C website, click ‘Get My Clip’ at the top of the page, and search for the clip of their choosing.”

All dressage and show jumping clips have been and will continue to be available within 24 hours of the completion of the phase and can be searched for at https://horseandcountry.tv/en-us/get-my-clip. Competitors and their supporters can request cross-country rounds by clicking HERE.

Additionally, H&C continues to provide USEA members a 15% discount on annual memberships. Login to your USEA online services account to access the code.

Alliston’s Busy Weekend, Braitling’s Reuniting with Five-Star Mount, & Kalkman’s Advanced Victory Highlight Twin Rivers Summer H.T.

As he was finishing tacking up his horse in preparation to navigate the cross-country course at the 2024 Twin Rivers Summer Horse Trials, James Alliston expressed concern about navigating the 101 Freeway. That’s because as soon as he crossed the finish line aboard Intermediate level winner Addyson (Ampere x Nickerbocker) at 10:38 a.m. on Saturday—his fifth cross-country round of the morning with three at Preliminary and two at Intermediate—the West Coast-based five-star rider had to drive 185 miles on the 101 Freeway from Twin Rivers Ranch in Paso Robles, California, to San Francisco International Airport to catch a 4:35 p.m. flight to Frankfurt, Germany.
