Jeannette Sassoon and her blind dressage horse Valiant performed a moving demonstration at the Reining World Freestyle Championship, part of the Ariat Kentucky Reining Cup, which took part during Rolex in Lexington, Kentucky. (Check out the feature story on Jeannette and Valiant in the June issue of Sidelines). In addition to their demonstrations and upcoming documentary, Jeannette wrote a song for Valiant, “Follow My Heart,” which has been recorded by new country Nashville artist Veronica Taylor. We can’t wait to hear the song on the radio.

Prince Harry (pictured) finished up his U.S. tour in Greenwich, Connecticut, where he played a charity polo game held at the Greenwich Polo Club, in front of 400 guests. During the match many of the players including Nacho Figures (Polo Ralph Lauren model), Dawn Jones (cinematographer and wife of actor Tommy Lee Jones), and Marc Ganzi (Audi Team captain) were spotted using the PoloGear™ Nic Roldan Elite Free Shoulder Saddle™. Developed by polo star, Nic Roldan, in conjunction with Verhan Saddlery and PoloGear™, this saddle operates on a completely new and innovative concept. The saddle removes the rider’s weight from the horse’s shoulders while simultaneously keeping the rider in the desired optimum forward position. All of the riders, including the Prince, were smiling – thanks to a great game!

After two years of being held on Grand Prix Sunday, the Hampton Classic’s incredibly popular Leadline Class (more than 100 entries!) is moving back to Opening Day (Sunday, August 25). It moved in 2011 when Hurricane Irene forced cancellation of the Classic’s Opening Day and then stayed on Grand Prix Sunday last year. However, Opening Day gives the Leadliners a chance to ride in the Classic’s famed Grand Prix Ring and so the switch back has been made. Olympic Gold Medalist Joe Fargis is expected to return as judge! Photo by Gilda VanHecke
