Auburn Labs, an equine supplement company based in California, is a well-known name in the sport horse industry. Their signature formula, APF (Advanced Protection Formula) was released in 1999 and has become a mainstay in the eventing world for equine athletes. APF (made in three versions for horses) is a natural formula for both immune system and cellular metabolism.
“We are delighted to once again be a part of the USEA American Eventing Championships. The AEC is an extraordinary event which recognizes the yearlong achievements of riders at every level. This is what eventing is about. Eventing is a great sport that builds a partnership between horse and rider that is unique in equestrian sports," said Joy Van Noy, co-founder of Auburn Labs.
“The USEA would like to thank Auburn Labs for their continued support of both the USEA and the AEC,” said USEA CEO,Rob Burk. “APF is widely used by our members for their horse’s wellness, and we greatly appreciate all they do for our sport!”

For more than 50 years, Jane Cory has been an unsung hero of the sport. The Area II trainer, judge, and event organizer welcomed generations of riders of all levels to her family’s beloved Pleasant Hollow Farm in Coopersburg, Pennsylvania, ensured the success of multitudes of shows and horse trials each year, and shared her love of horsemanship to all her students. Because of her deep dedication to her role, and contribution to the sport of eventing, she was recently honored by the USEA with the Andrew H. Popiel Trophy, given annually to organizers for their tireless commitment.
For some, riding is a casual hobby, taken up in childhood and lasting a few years before fading as the demands of “real life” take over. For others, it’s an all-consuming way of life, worth all the tremendous expense and pressure. Eventer Maddy Temkin is wholeheartedly in the second category.
