The Jersey Fresh International Three-Day Event saw 123 horse-and-rider combinations competing in four divisions over four days at the Horse Park of New Jersey in Allentown, New Jersey. It was an exciting weekend of competition that saw a new face at the top of the CCI4*-L leaderboard once the dust had settled. Twenty-three-year-old Fylicia Barr and her partner of nine years, Galloway Sunrise, beat out the competition to take home their first four-star win in the CCI4*-L division.

Second, it helps me be a better teacher by exposing me to different ways to have a relationship with a horse or a student.

Referred to as self-talk, internal dialogue, or brain babble; the words you say to yourself can have a huge impact on your performance. In fact, your thoughts and voice are actually considered behaviors, and just like how positive physical behaviors (i.e. a balanced transition) can create success, your verbal behaviors can also accomplish the very same thing. So let's spend the next few months talking about how to talk to yourself!

Keane’s First FEI Win Propels the Veterinarian to Capital Square USEA Adult Amateur of the Year Title

Being spontaneous has paid off for Kevin Keane and Sportsfield Candy. “I bought him on a Wednesday and showed him on a Thursday,” Keane recalls about his first event with his Irish Sport Horse gelding, then 9 years old, at Plantation Field Horse Trials (Unionville, Pennsylvania) in September 2016. “I owned him for part of a day, and the next morning I showed up at a CCI and jogged him up for a two-star, and we went clean and clean and clean.”
