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. Here is how cross country played out:

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.

February 10, 2020 by
We have arrived home well after a great week of training and competition in Wellington, Florida. To be honest, I am little disappointed with our result in the Wellington Showcase, as I really thought Ludwig was set up to be very competitive. By saying that, there were a lot a positives to take home from the event and the week's training.
On Wednesday, Ludwig underwent the USEF Elite Squad vet check. This took a couple of hours, and consisted of X-rays, ultrasounds, flexion tests and trot-ups. Read more...After the 2019 LRK3DE: The Best is Still to Come with Tsetserleg

Looking back on this year’s Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event, I’m honestly not sure we could have done much better with Thomas. Last year he felt like a green, inexperienced horse and this year he’s a seasoned campaigner. I’ve said it before, while I don’t know that he’s always the most talented horse in the field, there’s no question he tries the hardest of any horse I know.
I think the dressage this year was a good test but I think this is one area we can still improve. I think Read more...Tsetserleg Waltzes Into the Top 3 After Dressage!

This morning, when asking Silva about Boyd’s and Thomas’ preparation for this year’s test, she said, “I don’t want to jinx it, but we may have a top 3 finish.” Clearly Silva is clairvoyant…..or perhaps she and Boyd have been working pretty hard towards today’s score of a 27.9, which was good enough a press conference appearance as the scoring top American!
Since Boyd’s dressage test was near the end of the day, we also had the opportunity to visit with a few of our sponsors in Read more...2019 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event

The 2019 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event is under way and Tsetserleg passed the first veterinary inspection with flying colors. We've got Amber at the computer and Lisa on the ground in Kentucky making sure that Boyd's fans and sponsors have lots of great content from this year's big event!
Boyd has walked the cross country course (more than a few times) and is lined up for a few autograph signings with various sponsors in the trade fair. https://kentuckythreedayevent.com/sponsor-village-map/

First and foremost, it’s an honor and privilege to represent the USA at an international championship; like every occasion, I can honestly say I’ve tried as hard as I possibly could to give my best at this year’s WEG. I believe the selectors picked the right five horses and riders, and you can overanalyze this event but at the end of the day, anything that could have gone wrong went wrong for Team USA. All five of us were in form and had good, sound horses that were performing well, but Read more...Cross Country Day at WEG 2018: Not All to Plan but Team USA Still in the Running

Heading out of the start box in 8th place individually, Boyd was hoping for a better result today at the WEG, but a run-out at fence 10B with Tsetserleg and the resulting time penalties knocked them down the leaderboard to 54th place individually.
The US Eventing Association posted a video from the Mix Zone following cross country:
