On Saturday morning 45 horses will leave the start box at the 2021 Maryland 5 Star to tackle Ian Stark's first-ever five-star cross-country course. With 28 fences and 43 jumping efforts at 570 mpm, the horses and riders will need to be fit as they look to make the optimum time of 11 minutes.
Listen in to Ian Stark on a special bonus episode of the USEA Official Podcast and take a look at all of the fences on the course by clicking on the map or scrolling down for the gallery.
