USA Riders Gearing Up for Barbury Horse Trials

By USEA

A few of our team riders are getting in their last qualifiers at the Barbury Horse Trials in England this weekend. In the CIC3*, Amy Tryon will be riding Poggio II & Leyland, Clark Montgomery will be riding Up Spirit & Raconteur, Gina Miles will be competing McKinlaigh, and Karen O'Connor will be riding Mandiba. Elisabeth Halliday will be riding Red Letter Day II although they're not on the USEF Short List.

The Barbury site is fantastic - check out some of last year's highlights, stay updated on the time schedule, enjoy the photo galleries from last year, and much more. This event is going to be key in determining the British team - check out the latest press release.

The media section of the site is pretty neat, too, and it looks as if results will be easy to find. Be sure to check up this weekend and find out how our guys are doing!
