Thirty-One Horses Move Forward to CIC3* Show Jumping at the Fork
Thirty-one horses will go forward to show jumping today in The Fork CIC3* at Tryon International Equestrian Center – the World Equestrian Games test event and an Adequan USEA Gold Cup qualifying division. Two horses did not present this morning, Rachel McDonough’s Irish Rhythm, a 19-year-old Thoroughbred gelding (Vice Chancellor x Dawnsari) and Fernhill Cubalawn, Tom Tierney, Simon Roosevelt, and Caroline Moran’s 14-year-old Holsteiner gelding (Con Capitol x Corse Lawn) ridden by Phillip Dutton.
McDonough posted on her Instagram yesterday “Oliver was super around The Fork CIC3* track today, clear round with just a handful of time. Unfortunately we have acquired a cut on the inside left knee which may need a stitch! Though small we are taking the best care for our boy. He is comfortable and enjoying his treats and hay. I’ve made the decision to scratch him as I know he can show jump and taking care of him comes above all else!”
Dutton said on his Facebook page, “Fernhill Cubalawn was a bit sore and uncomfortable after running cross country at The Fork & WEG Eventing Test Event, so we withdrew him prior to this morning's final horse inspection. Thank you to my team for providing excellent care to Cuba. His welfare will always come first.”
Both Kiltealy Toss Up, Kehoe Enterprises LLC’s 12-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding (Kiltealy Spring x Kiltealy Lass) and the Donner Syndicate’s RF Cool Play, a 10-year-old German Sport Horse gelding (Condors Champion x Roxana) were sent to the hold box, but passed upon re-inspection.
Show jumping gets underway for the Advanced at 10:00 a.m. and the CIC3* at 11:00 a.m. You can watch the live stream here and follow along with the live scoring for the Advanced here and the CIC3* here.

Inaugural McKinlaigh Cup and Twin Rivers CCI4*-L Title Goes to Amber Levine and Cinzano
"Too plain" is not a description that fits today's wire-to-wire winner of the Twin Rivers Spring International's inaugural CCI4*-L. But that's what Amber Levine heard five years ago after importing the now 10-year-old Holsteiner gelding (Classe VDL x Walta) as a sales prospect. So, she kept him. His long-delayed debut at the CCI4*-L level proved the wisdom of that decision.
