On the Line

- So said Mark Bellissimo this evening as he stood adminst a growing crowd in Lé Club WEF. Immediately following the $40,000 Surpass CSI 2* Grand Prix at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center, the music was turned up inside the glass-walled tent officially called The Gallery (but as far as I’m concerned, it’s Lé Club from here on out) that is part of Mark and Equestrian Sport Productions’ grand scheme to draw more spectators to show jumping events. You can read more about Mark and ESP’s reimagining of the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in next month’s Sidelines, but for now, let me be the first to assure you that it is, indeed, working.
