VIDEO: Why Aren't U.S. Event Horses Lasting Longer
We are bringing you select content from the 2019 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention on demand in partnership with AV America, giving you a chance to experience some of the educational sessions from the comfort of your couch!
Over the previous decade, the number of upper level event horses that remain at the highest levels of the sport for extended periods of time has anecdotally been dwindling. Also, it is rare to see horses return to represent the U.S. on international teams. This discussion features statistics provided by the USEA and EquiRatings to strengthen our understanding of this issue and perspectives from coaches, trainers, riders, grooms, and veterinary professionals on the possible reasons and solutions. The ultimate goal is for this discussion to bridge into a movement towards improving the long term viability of our horses.

Now On Course: Woodrow Goes Wild to Mild
Did you know that there are over 53,000 wild mustangs in holding facilities across the United States?

I learned that he was a popular band stallion in Wyoming and had been followed by photographers for close to three years.
