United States Eventing Association

From Courtney Young of Three-Days Three Ways: We’ve buzzed right into September and that means the American Eventing Championships are upon us. We’ve talked about the competition and the location at Chatthoochee Hills already, though I couldn’t help but delve in for some of the delightful details. Of which there are plenty! I can’t wait to get there.

It’s been a big season with events around the country like The Fork, Rebecca Farm, and Galway Downs getting bigger and better with each go round. But everything carries more weight this year since the World Equestrian Games will be taking this place this September and October for the first time on American soil. And the 2010 Land Rover/USEA American Eventing Championships will be no different.

You already know that Mara Dean rocked Red Hills and posted the first win on the FEI World Cup Tour scoreboard. But what you may not already know is that she returned my phone call tout suite with enthusiasm for doing the interview despite a lingering cold and opened up for Three Days Three Ways and for you.

Think you know the real Phillip Dutton? Think again. Courtney Young, of Three Days Three Ways blog, asks the acclaimed Aussie thought-provoking questions about his horses (past and present), safety issues in the sport, and how he’s managed the nearly-impossible feat of being the top USEA rider for the past eleven years (“Consistency is the name of the game.”)
