Kelly Loria leads Young Riders CH-J*

This post is going to be brief because the Eventing Nation corporate jet is in the repair shop and so I have a long drive to Lexington ahead of me today.  Kelly Loria and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds topped the Young Riders one-star dressage by 2.5 points with a 40.0.  I'm sure there is a perfectly logical explanation for why the horse is named "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds," but it makes me wonder if the USEA or FEI has a letter limit on horse names, and, if so, how does that name not exceed that limit?  The Tracy sisters are having a good weekend so far with Anisa leading the 2* and Kendyl placed third in the 1*.

1. Kelly Loria and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds  40.0
2. Claire Kelley and Clifton Peekachu  42.5
3T. Kendyl Tracy and Ever So Lucky  48.5
3T. Rowdie Jo Adams and No Money Down  48.5
5 Katherine Martineau and HM As Spirits Go  49.0

The hometown Area VI, VII, & VIII team are leading the team competition, with Jon Holling's Area IV squad lurking in second, just four points back.


Go eventing.

This wonderful horse is an off the track TB brought up the levels by the rider who is 16. One of the nicest girls you will ever meet. I help do fund raising for Young Riders and she is always one of the first to volunteer-long before she made the team. Talented and a very hard worker.

Lots of horses are named after songs...the Beatles' Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is a pretty long song title though!

You could always just call her "LSD" perfect for a young rider ;)

Thanks for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do a little research about this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I am very glad to see such magnificent information being shared freely out there.
