Military Tribute T e military has always had a presence
at WIHS. In fact, in the early days, only members of the military could compete in some of the international jumper classes. Now, for the third year in a row, Friday evening at WIHS has become Military Night. Exhibitions that evening will include the Caisson Platoon presentation. T ere will be an Armed Forces reception and launch of the book Healthy Stable by Designs by John Blackburn and Beth Herman. Portions of the reception will benefi t four local PATH International centers that participate in the PATH International/Wounded Warrior Project scholarship program. Maryland
The Thoroughbred Show Hunter
At one point in the history of show hunters, practically everyone competed a T oroughbred. Many handy hunter courses were done outdoors on the grass and the show horse was often a foxhunting T oroughbred coming into the show ring during the off season. When it came to show jumpers, T oroughbreds made their way to the top of international competition with such notable horses as Maryland-bred Touch of Class (jockey club name Stillaspill), who won two Olympic Gold medals, and Sweet ‘n’ Low, who still holds the Washington International Horse Show Puissance record at 7’7 1/2”. T oroughbred-only hunter and jumper shows are going strong right here in Maryland prompting many top-rated shows to add T oroughbred-only classes. T e Capital Challenge Horse Show is off ering the $4,000 Future Working Hunter T oroughbred division, sponsored by TAKE2 Second Career T oroughbred Program. Show co-manager Oliver Kennedy said that about 15 years ago, T oroughbreds outnumbered non-T oroughbreds but over the past several years, those numbers fl ip-fl opped and so the show had dropped T oroughbred classes. “Nothing beats a great T orough- bred. But the Hunter and Jumper world has stopped looking around the race tracks for horses in favor of going to Europe and shopping for the various breeds of Warmbloods,” he noted. With the addition of the Future Hunter T oroughbred division, the T oroughbred is making its way back into the show ring. “I think organizations like TAKE2 Second Career Program and other groups promoting the T oroughbred are doing a great service, reminding people that the T oroughbreds are great athletes and make great hunters and jumpers,” Kennedy added. WIHS is also jumping on the T oroughbred bandwagon adding two T oroughbred-only class- es to the WIHS Regional Horse Show schedule. T e organization is looking into possibly adding T oroughbred-only classes and awards to the WIHS schedule in the future.
