The entries for the MARS Maryland 5 Star are live, and this year, 25 pairs will contest the feature five-star division.

Sixteen U.S. riders will compete, including Caroline Pamukcu, who has four horses entered. Boyd Martin brings two horses, Commando 3 and Luke 140, while Jennie Brannigan also has two entries with FE Lifestyle and FE Connory.

One British pair will cross the pond—Alex Bragg and Quindiva. Swiss Olympian Felix Vogg is entered on his experienced campaigner Cartania, while Jessica Phoenix and Lindsay Traisnel will represent Canada with three total entries.

U.S.-based New Zealand rider Monica Spencer brings forward Artist, and she's joined by British-based New Zealander Jonelle Price on Chilli's Midnight Star, though Price's husband Tim Price, who won the five-star in 2022 on Coup de Coeur Dudevin, is absent from the list.

Rounding out the foreign entries is Sophia Hill, who brings Humble Glory to represent Australia.

Notably absent is last year's winner, British rider Oliver Townend, who competed his top horse Cooley Rosalent at Burghley last month.
