Training in Aachen is going well so far. Both of Chris and Tommie Turner's horses, Thomas and Cue, have arrived in good form after traveling well from the States. The first couple of days here in Germany, I just did some light flat work with team coach Erik Duvander helping me. As the horses were still adjusting after travel, we worked on very simple stretching and suppling work. Yesterday the Bride, Silva Martin, arrived and we started working on the dressage test movements. Both horses are Read more...Boyd’s Update from Aachen

July 2, 2021 by
We just finished up a great couple of days at Great Meadow in The Plains, Virginia for the US Eventing Team's mandatory outing. The Great Meadow Foundation were generous enough to put on a spectacular event for the 12 horses in training towards the Olympic Games. This was a perfect time to give them a practice run as the Olympics will be run in less than a month.
I took Tsetserleg TSF and On Cue, both owned by the Turner Family, to this event. My game plan was to give them a nice, solid run Read more...On Cue Leads the U.S. Contingent at the 2021 #LRK3DE

Today was a seriously tough day of cross country that saw dreams dashed for numerous horse and rider combinations at the Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event, and Boyd was no exception. But there is still a bright light for Team Windurra: at the end of the day, On Cue rose above the rest to stand second overall, and in the top placing out of U.S. horses and riders in the CCI5*-L going into tomorrow's show jumping phase.

Silva finished up her Kentucky coaching gig by helping Boyd pilot both of his remaining CCI5*-L horses into the top ten at the 2021 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event Presented by Mars Equestrian.
On Cue
On Cue is probably the greenest one out of the five-star horses because she hasn’t done any of the big competitions yet. I thought she was awesome, I’ve never seen her this good! She’s a very good mover, so that helps, and she was very focused and kept her cool. She only had a couple Read more...Boyd Martin Eventing Videos: USEF High Performance Training Session in Ocala
February 4, 2021 by
Boyd spent the past several days in Ocala, Florida at a USEF Elite High Performance training session:
"I had a really productive four days training with the USEF High Performance coaches in Ocala, FL. I took four of the advanced horses: Thomas (Tsetserleg), Luke (Luke 140), Ludwig (Long Island T) and Cue (On Cue). Below are some videos of me jumping with Peter Wylde and doing some dressage with David O’Connor. I feel like I really benefited from the work we put in over the past couple of days.

I'm slowly building up the upper-level horses for their spring goals: some of the horses are heading to Kentucky, Jersey Fresh and on to Bromont, and we used Red Hills in Tallahassee, Florida as one of their preparation events to get them humming along.
KYRA - 1st, ADVANCED
Christine Turner's feisty, redheaded mare was absolutely brilliant this weekend; she's had a busy schedule with Bruce's Field last weekend and to come out and blitz the competition this weekend was a satisfying victory. Read more...
