Kate Berta and Vince Berta's Thoroughbred gelding Bourbon trotted into the lead today in the 40-rider Training Three Day division of the Hagyard Midsouth Three Day Event and Team Challenge. Their fluid and focused test earned the pair a 32.9, putting them 2.5 points ahead of the next-placed Jonathan Ketzler on Sal.
Lara Borson-Knight leads the Preliminary Three Day on Shooby Do with a 34.1, and Canada's Penny Rowland won the dressage in the CCI* on Northwinds Breeze with a 41.3.
The "Brownsboro Babes"—Irene Lampton on Daisy, Anna Kjellstrom on AEC Champion Blue Stocking, Trudy Atrens on Charley Farley, and Millie Forrest on It's Friday—took over the lead in the Preliminary Team Challenge competition after dressage and showjumping. They will return to defend their top position tomorrow afternoon in the cross country.
The Training and Preliminary Classic Three-Day riders also enjoyed expert tutorials on riding the steeplechase phase from clinician Cathy Wieschhoff. Part of the Smartpak Equine/USEA Classic Three-Day Event Series, the T3D and P3D will ride a full-format endurance day tomorrow, which includes two phases of Roads and Tracks, a steeplechase, and challenging cross country tracks.
