Red Hills Horse Trials, scheduled for March 5-7, is excited to welcome a field of over 140 competitors to Tallahassee for the East Coast World Cup Qualifier and the first in the Adequan USEA Gold Cup Series. After a hiatus in 2009, Red Hills is expecting more than 25,000 spectators to view the Trials at the Elinor Klapp-Phipps Park and enjoy the many activities and exhibitions offered.
Red Hills was chosen to host the USEA Equine Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research Study. The study will be performed using horses in the Advanced divisions. The ultimate goal is to assess the cardiopulmonary effects on the horses and to identify factors that may influence their performance or safety issues.
In addition to the Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Study, Red Hills will also host the first candidates of the new Global Education Programme for Eventing Officials. Created and funded by the Federation Equéstré Internationale, (FEI), the project’s mission is to improve and align safety standards and support the sports’s officials in their work worldwide. This education initiative will play a major role in expanding and raising the quality and experience of Eventing officials worldwide.

And just like that—2025 is upon us! Thinking about the year ahead can be exciting and a little overwhelming. You are not alone! Let’s talk through a few strategies I use this time of year to mentally and physically prepare for making the most out of the upcoming year.
Spectators could be forgiven for thinking they were seeing double during the victory gallop in the Novice Junior 15 & Under division at the 2024 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) presented by Nutrena Feeds. Two identical flea-bitten ponies were galloping around, second- and third-place ribbons streaming in the breeze, under the command of 13-year-old Kendal Fansler of Clarksville, Maryland.

The $60,000 Adequan® USEA Advanced Final, which will take place during the 2025 USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds on Aug. 26-31, is the highlight of an already jam-packed championship schedule. This year, the championship will be hosted at Galway Downs in Temecula, California, giving West Coast-based, upper-level eventers the “home field advantage” during this exciting showdown.
