Almost 200 rider and horse combinations have been invited to compete at the Festival of Champions of 12 American championships from Grand Prix to ponies scheduled for the Chicago area community of Wayne Aug. 18-23.
A final decision has not yet been made on whether the annual championships will go ahead at Lamplight Equestrian Center, about 60 miles/96km west of Chicago, the third most populous city in the U.S. where there is a high level of coronavirus cases.
However, hunter/jumper shows are currently being held at Lamplight, including a five-day competition this week.
The U.S. Equestrian Federation that organizes the championships is reported to be deferring a final decision on the festival until the U.S. Pony Finals that typically sees hundreds of jumpers and hunters will be at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington next week.
Invitations for the festival are being sent out to riders across the country that qualified for the championships at Grand Prix, Intermediate 1, Under-25 Brentina Cup, Developing Grand Prix and Prix St. Georges, Young, Junior, Children and Pony riders as well as four, five and six-year-old horse divisions, plus two Dressage Seat Medal finals.
Alice Tarjan of Frenchtown, New Jersey and Lindsey Holleger of Maplewood Warmbloods in Middletown, New York each qualified five horses.
Alice Tarjan qualified Candescent, a 10-year-old Hanoverian mare that she debuted at Florida’s Global Dressage Festival in the CDI3* in mid-March that was the last Big Tour event in the world before the coronavirus pandemic shut down horse sports for more than three months.
She also earned starting places for Donatella M and Harvest in Developing Grand Prix as well as Summersby II in the five-year-old division and Gjenganger in the four-year-olds.
Lindsey Holleger is qualified with MW Feinermark in Developing Grand Prix, MW Ave Maria and MW I’m the Lady Texel in Developing Prix St. Georges and MW Bodacious and MW Weissgold in the four-year-old division.
