Eventers Get Their Feet Wet During AEC Course Walks
With this year’s Land Rover/USEA American Eventing Championships in Fairburn, Georgia set to officially kick off bright and early on Thursday morning, nearly 100 competitors took the opportunity to enjoy the free Novice course walk with PRO riders Boyd Martin (pictured above) and Cathy Wieschhoff on Wednesday afternoon. Nearly 700 horses are slated to compete this weekend, and riders from across the nation from Beginner Novice through Advanced will be battling for the chance to take home a piece of the $70,000 in cash and $100,000 in prizes…along with bragging rights! Stay tuned for exciting coverage throughout the weekend including photo galleries, videos, and interviews. Check out Wednesday’s photo gallery. Leslie Mintz photo.
