KER-Sponsored Rider Karen O'Connor and Mandiba Victorious in Montana

August 25, 2010

KER-sponsored rider Karen O'Connor rode Joan Goswell's Mandiba to a win in the CIC***-W at The Event At Rebecca Farm, July 21-25 in Kalispell, Montana.

The pair was named to the United State Equestrian Federation's short list for the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games, to be held this fall in Lexington, Kentucky.
O'Connor also rode Quintus 54 to a second-place finish in the CCI** held at the same competition.

KER-sponsored rider Phillip Dutton earned top ribbons in the CIC*** with Truluck and Inmidair, finishing third and sixth respectively. Like O'Connor, Dutton has made the short list for the World Equestrian Games, except he has five possible mounts: Connaught, Kheops du Quesnay, The Foreman, Truluck, and Woodburn.

All short-listed horse/rider combinations must participate in the Land Rover 2010 USEA American Eventing Championships for final selection. This event will take place September 9-12, 2010, in Fairburn, Georgia.
