Lauren Kieffer and Veronica Lead at Lunch at Rolex Kentucky
Lauren Kieffer and Team Rebecca LLC's Veronica took the lead just before the lunch break at Rolex Kentucky, jumping ahead of a three-way tie for second place between Phillip Dutton, Jan Byyny and overnight leader Michael Pollard.
Kieffer (Middleburg, Va.) had a quiet, focused warmup before their round and seemed equally steady and focused in the main arena to score a 46.7.
A three-way tie for second place was also established in the morning session, with Phillip Dutton on Mr. Medicott and Jan Byyny on Inmidair scoring a 49.5 - the score that Michael Pollard and Mensa G led with overnight.
The leaderboard could still shake up quite a bit by the end of the day as the afternoon ride list is a star-studded one. Phillip Dutton, Andrew Nicholson, Mark Todd and William Fox-Pitt are set to ride after the competition gets back underway at 1:30 p.m.
