One Key Withdrawal, but Rest Accepted at Final Fair Hill Horse Inspection
All horses who presented this morning at the final horse inspection at the Dutta Corp. Fair Hill International Three-Day Event were accepted, but one notable horse wasn’t presented. D.A. Duras, Jacqueline Mars and Debbie Adam’s 11-year-old KWPN gelding (Numero Uno x Medoc) was withdrawn by Lauren Kieffer before the horse inspection. The pair were sitting in third place in the CCI4*-L so their withdrawal moves up the majority of the division.
In the CCI3*-L Babette Lenna Gonyea’s entry Marketscan, an 11-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding owned by Babette Brandt, was held but accepted upon reinspection. They will go into show jumping in 46th place.
Show jumping begins with the CCI3*-L at 10:30 a.m. and 50 horses will jump. The CCI4*-L follows at 1:00 p.m. with 29 horses to jump over Marc Donovan’s course.
