OSPHOS
®
(clodronate injection)
Bisphosphonate
For use in horses only.
Brief Summary (For Full Prescribing Information, see package
insert)
CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this drug to use by or on
the order of a licensed veterinarian.
DESCRIPTION: Clodronate disodium is a non-amino, chloro-
containing bisphosphonate. Chemically, clodronate disodium is
(dichloromethylene) diphosphonic acid disodium salt and is
manufactured from the tetrahydrate form.
INDICATION: For the control of clinical signs associated with
navicular syndrome in horses.
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Horses with hypersensitivity to clodronate
disodium should not receive OSPHOS.
WARNINGS: Do not use in horses intended for human consumption.
HUMAN WARNINGS: Not for human use. Keep this and all drugs
out of the reach of children. Consult a physician in case of acci-
dental human exposure.
PRECAUTIONS: As a class, bisphosphonates may be associ-
ated with gastrointestinal and renal toxicity. Sensitivity to drug
associated adverse reactions varies with the individual patient.
Renal and gastrointestinal adverse reactions may be associated
with plasma concentrations of the drug. Bisphosphonates are
excreted by the kidney; therefore, conditions causing renal im-
pairment may increase plasma bisphosphonate concentrations
resulting in an increased risk for adverse reactions. Concurrent
administration of other potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be
approached with caution and renal function should be mon-
itored. Use of bisphosphonates in patients with conditions or
diseases affecting renal function is not recommended.
Administration of bisphosphonates has been associated
with abdominal pain (colic), discomfort, and agitation in horses.
Clinical signs usually occur shortly after drug administration and
may be associated with alterations in intestinal motility. In horses
treated with OSPHOS these clinical signs usually began within
2 hours of treatment. Horses should be monitored for at least 2
hours following administration of OSPHOS.
Bisphosphonates affect plasma concentrations of some min-
erals and electrolytes such as calcium, magnesium and po-
tassium, immediately post-treatment, with effects lasting up
to several hours. Caution should be used when administering
bisphosphonates to horses with conditions affecting mineral or
electrolyte homeostasis (e.g. hyperkalemic periodic paralysis,
hypocalcemia, etc.).
The safe use of OSPHOS has not been evaluated in horses less
than 4 years of age. The effect of bisphosphonates on the skel-
eton of growing horses has not been studied; however, bisphos-
phonates inhibit osteoclast activity which impacts bone turnover
and may affect bone growth.
Bisphosphonates should not be used in pregnant or lactating
mares, or mares intended for breeding. The safe use of OSPHOS
has not been evaluated in breeding horses or pregnant or lac-
tating mares. Bisphosphonates are incorporated into the bone
matrix, from where they are gradually released over periods of
months to years. The extent of bisphosphonate incorporation
into adult bone, and hence, the amount available for release
back into the systemic circulation, is directly related to the to-
tal dose and duration of bisphosphonate use. Bisphosphonates
have been shown to cause fetal developmental abnormalities
in laboratory animals. The uptake of bisphosphonates into fetal
bone may be greater than into maternal bone creating a possible
risk for skeletal or other abnormalities in the fetus. Many drugs,
including bisphosphonates, may be excreted in milk and may be
absorbed by nursing animals.
Increased bone fragility has been observed in animals treated
with bisphosphonates at high doses or for long periods of time.
Bisphosphonates inhibit bone resorption and decrease bone
turnover which may lead to an inability to repair micro damage
within the bone. In humans, atypical femur fractures have been
reported in patients on long term bisphosphonate therapy; how-
ever, a causal relationship has not been established.
ADVERSE REACTIONS: The most common adverse reactions
reported in the field study were clinical signs of discomfort or
nervousness, colic and/or pawing. Other signs reported were
lip licking, yawning, head shaking, injection site swelling, and
hives/pruritus.

We are so proud of our riders, their ponies and what they have accomplished.
Kelly Poon and Darling Clementine both competing for the rst time at pony nals
performed like seasoned competitors and had a beautiful round over the jumps
ending up 10th. This round combined with good model and under saddle scores
earned them an 10th place overall out of 167 medium ponies.
Rachel Rosenblum and Sugarbrook Pink-N-Blue were 21st in the model, 12th in the
under saddle and were 8th after the combined model and under saddle scores.
Rachel and Sam I Am also performed well and enjoyed their second year jumping in
the Walnut ring.
Avery Lambert and All About Blue received average scores of 86 for their under
saddle performance and competed in the medal. Avery also got to compete in the
mediums on Moonlight Star as well thanks to the generosity of Joey Currais, Linda
Evans and the Becker family.
We would like to give a special thanks to our amazing team member Adrian Delgado
who took exceptional care of our ponies and our riders.

ounded by horsemen for horsemen, EquiJet is an industry
leader in domestic and international equine transportation.
Boasting more than two decades of experience and an
extensive network of reputable transportation partners,
EquiJet ensures that your horses are shipped safely, whether
traveling to a local show or across the globe. Offering unparalleled
customer service for all equestrian disciplines, EquiJet is available
to guide you through every step of the shipping process.
Moving a horse, especially by air, can seem like a daunting endeavor,
with regulations and preparations posing unique challenges for
horse owners and caretakers. Without the right guidance, rst-
time shipping can be more of a tribulation than a convenience, but
luckily it doesn’t have to be that way. Bastian Schroeder, owner and
CEO of EquiJet, sheds light on a few important aspects to note
when shipping a horse.
What needs to be done to prepare a horse for air travel?
“When it comes to shipping horses by airplane, preparation is
key. We ensure that all the arrangements are taken care of to get
a horse door-to-door, and booking the appropriate ight is just
the rst step,” said Schroeder. “Prior to ying and depending
on destination, paperwork such as an updated coggins, health
Daniel Pedraza and Soldado jump the EquiJet fence in the
EquiJet-sponsored 1.30m Jumpers at Blenheim Red, White
and Blue in California.

certicate and personalized passport must be completed. We can
additionally take care of trailering to and from the airport, as well
as advise regarding baggage and equipment.”
As an added benet, EquiJet’s partnership with Enviro Equine &
PET allows for traveling horses to receive complimentary tubes
of ElectroBalance, the company’s agship all-natural electrolyte
supplement, to keep their health at its peak.
What can I expect for my horse on the plane?
“Each horse is accompanied by a certied groom to ensure that
they are comfortable and safe, as well as to provide the horse
with adequate water and hay during ight. As surprising as it may
sound, horses are normally quite calm during ight, and plenty
of horses tend to rest one leg at a time and snooze as the ride
is much easier on their bodies. Since there are no sharp turns or
rough bumps, the horses should never have to strain themselves,”
explained Schroeder.
Once my horse lands at the airport, what happens then?
“To answer this question, a handful of factors come into play.
Whether the horse was shipped domestic or internationally, the
sex of the horse and the age of the horse all determine if it has to
stay in quarantine and, if so, for how long after an arriving ight.
Horses can stay in quarantine anywhere from 3 days to 60 days,”
commented Schroeder.

The Juggling Act:
Virginia Fout’s
Bicoastal Acclaim
By Esther Hahn
T
o see the name Virginia Fout on
a start list in the Amateur-Owner
Hunter divisions is to know the
competition will be fierce. With
her light touch and accurate eye,
she’s piloted her two mounts, Cristiano and
Carma, to numerous championships on both
ends of the country.
In 2017 alone, Fout won Amateur-Owner
classes at each major Indoor show with
Cristiano while also taking home the Low
Amateur-Owner Hunter championship
titles with Carma from Capital Challenge
Horse Show, the Washington International
Horse Show, and the National Horse Show
in Kentucky. Fout and Carma have held the
titles for two years running at Washington,
Kentucky, and the Devon Horse Show. And
for 2017, Carma earned the USEF Horse of
the Year title.
“I never do that,” said Fout, about chasing
points and titles. “My horses are 13 and 14,
and I have to make them last. I don’t show
them as much as my peers because of life and
because I want to sustain them. But I was so
close after Kentucky last year that I looked
at my trainer and said, ‘I cannot believe I’m
saying this, but I think I need to go to a horse
show after Kentucky.’ I think I went to 13
shows, and Carma won Horse of the Year.”
The “life” she referenced is a full plate, even
without the horses. As owner and president
of V Productions, Fout produces large-scale
events, including the annual Elton John AIDS
Foundation Oscar Party. And Fout’s personal
life features family prominently, with her
husband, Michael Whetstone, and their
6-year-old daughter Logan, at the forefront.
So how does the working mom find consistent
success in the hunters, a sport that demands
perfect execution? It’s all in the balance—and
in a commitment to excel.
Sweet Virginia
Fout’s horsemanship roots run deep. Her
parents had met on the horse show circuit,
so naturally, Fout and her siblings were
born to know horses. Fout’s father, Paul,
was a racehorse trainer and her mother, Eve,
repurposed the Thoroughbred track rejects
into fox hunters on the family’s farm.
“I didn’t know there was an option to not
ride,” Fout said. “I’d ride after school, I
participated in Pony Club and a group of us
kids would fox hunt together with Mo Dana.”

________________
TheCompetitiveEquestrian
Because Fout’s older brother, Doug,
and sister, Nina, are 12 and 11 years
older, respectively, they weren’t
around by the time Fout could keep
pace with them. Fout remembered
that without playmates in the house,
she would carry on as both characters
in the “Cowboys and Indians” game
aboard her pony. It was an idyllic,
horse-centric childhood, nestled in
the countryside of The Plains, Va.
With horses in the blood, Fout’s
siblings went on to equine-focused
occupations: Doug is a steeplechase
jockey turned trainer and Nina is a
three-day eventer and a 2000 Sydney
Olympics bronze medalist.
“My siblings and I have a common
thread in horses, and yet, all three of us
chose different disciplines,” Fout said.
“Horses and riding are professions
for them and a hobby for me. It’s fun
because that allows us to stand apart
from each other, but we still can
bounce things off of one another.”
Ironically, Fout didn’t grow up
showing. Perhaps it was because
horses were the family’s livelihood
that Fout’s parents pushed back,
saying, “You have your whole life to
show.” Instead, Fout competed at
the local level and in Pony Club. One
especially fun event was dubbed “The
Mini Olympics,” which included an
overnight ride that culminated with
breakfast pancakes, jousting, and
a bareback ride across the lake. It
wasn’t until the final few years in her
junior career that Fout began to ride
in recognized shows.
“In my last junior year, I was fortunate
enough to ride Incentive, an amazing
horse owned by Sally Smith,” Fout
recalled. “Scott Williamson and
Jimmy Piehler facilitated our pairing,
and we qualified for Indoors. That
year I also qualified for the Medal
and the Maclay on a horse owned
by Alison Firestone. I didn’t get a lot
of trial and error—it was just, go out
and do it.”

Changing Tides
It was with that same mindset that Fout jumped from the
East Coast to the West. After her first year of college at
Mount Vernon College, chosen specifically to be near home
to ride for her final junior year, Fout took a leap of faith to
California.
It all came about as many things do in connection to horses:
Incentive’s owner, Sally Smith, knew of a trainer in Marin
County, Bitsy Shields. Smith set Fout up with an interview
to teach and work at Shields’ Hickory Ridge Farm.
“I flew out to California to meet her,” said Fout. “And for me,
coming from Virginia, it was nothing I had ever seen before,
with dirt corrals instead of pastures and letting the horses
loose in the riding arenas to burn off a little steam before
riding them.”
“When I got back home from the interview, someone said,
‘I bet you won’t do it.’ Two days after that, I was in a car
heading West.”
That was in July 1990. Fout moved to San Francisco, gave
up her amateur status, and became a professional. The first
show she went to in California was by the beach in Santa
Cruz. The rented house for the week was on the water, and
Fout relished the change of scenery.
When Fout decided to go back to college, after 18 months
of working for Shields, she enrolled at the Academy of
Art College to study advertising and graphic design. While
studying, she also went to work for rising trainer and rider,
John French.
“I rode and taught at the barn, but I didn’t really go to many
horse shows except when I came home to visit my family,”
Fout said. “Every year, though, I would try to go to Upperville.
I’d grab one of my mom’s fox hunters out of the field and go
show.”
New Direction
After graduating in 1995, Fout accepted a job at a San Francisco
company, CNET. And with the new role Fout decided to step
away from riding to focus on her career. I can always ride
horses, she thought to herself, at the time.
When E! Entertainment approached CNET to create E!
Online, Fout was transferred to Los Angeles. But before she
left the Bay Area, she produced a horse show in the middle
Golden Gate Park, the inaugural San Francisco Classic
Horse Show, which also served as a fundraiser for local AIDS
charities, including the Equestrian Aid Foundation.”
“It was the beginning of my interest in production,” Fout
said. “HIV/AIDS had impacted my life after I lost so many
friends to the disease, and that motivated me to give back
to the community. The Middleburg Classic had already been

going, and I thought that it would be great to do something
similar on the West Coast.”
After her move to Los Angeles, Fout decided to take a full break
from horses as she learned a new city while cultivating fresh
relationships and friendships. It was during this time that she
met her husband, Mike, a production designer.
“As E! Online started to grow from inception, it was fun
navigating this whole Internet thing and how it could apply
to live events and red carpet events,” said Fout. “We hosted
Q&As that were like group chats so a celebrity would answer
questions, live and directly from fans. Now it sounds so
antiquated but at the time, it was really innovative. The whole
space was constantly evolving, and I was definitely focused on
work and career.”
By then, event planning was her focus and passion. From E!,
Fout moved on to Columbia Tri-Star, taking charge of the cast
of Battle Dome, which meant overseeing press junkets and
appearances. Fout upped her game with an appointment at
Universal Interactive, which saw Fout become the head of the
very busy events and global trade show group.
“It was a little bit: right place at the right time,” said Fout.
“Universal Interactive made hit video games from their
intellectual property. As a kid, I played Atari so that was my
baseline. But overall, I had to dig in and learn from the ground
up.”
After a few years and a corporate transaction that relocated
Universal Interactive to Westchester, many miles from home,
Fout faced a long commute and a career fork in the road.
“I remember driving home and thinking, ‘What am I doing?’”
Fout revealed. “I felt like a hamster on a wheel.”
It was in 2003 that Fout decided to formally launch her own
event company. Soon, one of her best friends, John Scott, a co-
founder of the Elton John AIDS Foundation, asked Fout to help
with a fundraising event at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach.
“I produced that event for him, and it was a success,” Fout said.

“Then he asked, ‘How would you like to produce our Oscar
party?’ The rest is history.”
Work Rewards
This year will mark Fout’s 15th year producing the Elton John
AIDS Foundation Oscar Party. Before Fout took the helm, the
annual event was produced by an outside sponsor. After she
joined, the Foundation decided to self-produce the event.
“When I started, we had three hundred people, a sit-down
dinner, and a performance,” Fout said. “Now, it’s one thousand
people—it has tripled in size. It’s also gone from making
$1 million to $6 million. It’s a lot of work, but it is incredibly
rewarding.”
Fout inherited her philanthropic spirit from her mom, Eve. As an
avid foxhunter, Eve held a deep love for Virginia’s countryside,
and foresaw the threat of urban sprawl as it pushed its way out
from Washington, D.C.
“My mom was head of the Piedmont Environment Council,”
said Fout. “She fought tirelessly for the conservation easement
of hunt country. Looking back now, I feel so so lucky that she
did.”
It’s in large part thanks to Eve’s commitment that Middleburg
properties continue to have open land and spaces, a legacy that
Eve would appreciate.
Absorbing her mom’s fervor for a good cause, Fout has found
her greatest passion in event production to be closely tied to
charitable actions. Earlier in the year, Fout helped her client,
musician Steven Tyler, launch his annual Grammy party, which
raised $2.4 million for female victims of abuse and neglect.
Each year, Fout takes on new projects alongside the annual
events. She finds herself to be inspired by the larger functions,
often with philanthropic purpose, because they are both
challenging and incredibly rewarding.
“You tend to find your niche and find where you excel,” Fout
said. “Fundraising-driven events have really become one of my
specialties. I love a good challenge and executing something
that seems impossible.”

Chance Encounter
Shortly after Fout established her production company
in 2004, she and her husband went looking for their first
home. One of the options they toured had riding trophies
and ribbons displayed everywhere.
“I walked into the computer nook and there was a diploma
above it saying Archibald Cox,” Fout remembered. “It was
Archie’s house! I would run into him when our friend, Scott
Williamson, would be in town. But that was the sign to get
back to riding. I called him, and I started going out to ride
horses at the barn. I wanted to have a horse again, but my
mom wasn’t having any of it. She was worried that it would
become an expense she would get saddled with herself.”
When Fout’s father passed away in 2005, a few of the horses
in his training string had to find new homes. There was one
that Fout had her eye on to develop. He was a stallion at
the time, a 3-year-old with chips in his ankle and a wind
operation.
When the assistant trainer was tasked with finding the horse
a good home, Fout volunteered. Keeping him at a friend’s
house and out of Eve’s eyesight, Fout gelded him, turned
him out, then mustered up enough money to put him on a
trailer to California.
“I remember being with my mom a few months later and
saying, ‘I have something to tell you: remember that horse?
Well, I have him,’” Fout said. “My mom started laughing. His
name is Pine, and I called him Classified because it was a
classified operation to get him to California. He’s my sweet
Thoroughbred that took me around, jumped everything, and
went Indoors as a 5-year-old. Now, he’s retired in Virginia,
going on trail rides. But that’s how it all started with Archie.”
Now, Fout’s competition string is comprised of two horses,
Cristiano, a 13-year-old Oldenburg, and Carma, a 14-year-
old Mecklenburg gelding. Both horses were gambles for
Fout. Cristiano was coming back from a splint bone removal
that had him sidelined for a year and a half when Fout
purchased him. And Carma, too, was coming back from an
injury, which the vet categorized as a 50-50 chance in terms
of future soundness. Regardless, Fout purchased him from
barn mate, Montana Coady.
“Archie had the vision to pair me with both horses,” Fout
said. “And they are my horses of a lifetime, for sure.”
In a way, it’s a testament to Fout’s horsemanship that she’s
been so successful with her formerly high-risk horses.
Stabled at Middle Ranch in Sylmar, Calif., Cristiano and
Carma live together in a grass paddock. Ever since a wild fire
ravaged the property last December, the barn that formerly
housed Fout’s horses burned down and has yet to be rebuilt.
“I think living out has attributed to their wellbeing,” said
Fout. “The older they get, the more beneficial it is for them
to move around.”
Another key to keeping her horses happy is quality time at
Fout’s Virginia farm. After her parents passed, she kept her
family’s property and stables her horses there for weeks at a
time when showing on the East Coast.
“This year, after Devon and Upperville, the horses stayed at
my house an extra three weeks,” Fout said. “And I rode them
out on the trails the whole time, they just love it.”
In Balance
Hard work is a common theme in Fout’s story. She’s worked
hard to get to where she is—with her career, with her horses,
and with raising her young family. It’s evident that this work
ethic is directly shaped from a life born into horses.
“Horses are in my blood,” Fout said. “I pinch myself every
day. I’m so lucky for a childhood growing up on the back of
my Connemara pony, Hush Puppy, and for the experience
of facing a variety of temperaments with the off-the-track
Thoroughbreds. There wasn’t any horse shopping for me. I
had to make the best of what I was given and that’s carried
over into my adult years.
“And because I was never allowed to show the circuit as a
junior, it makes it even more rewarding to be able to do it
myself as an amateur. I feel fortunate to have two talented,
albeit challenging horses. I know it’s my background that
has helped me in my success with them—that and practice.”
There are parallels to horses and event production for Fout.
Work, time, and mileage are the keys to success in both
industries. And when asked about what she may be doing
in five or ten years in her two worlds, Fout was quick with
an answer.
“I hope I’m still riding,” she said. “I don’t think I’ll take the
jumper route, but perhaps I’ll start doing derbies to change
it up a bit. That would really be going back to my roots.
Professionally, I hope to play a part, producing events, in the
upcoming Olympic Games that will be in Los Angeles in ten
years. In a way, I’m tailor-made to jump into that challenge.”
Whatever route Fout takes, she will undoubtedly remain
constant to her truth: that you’ll never know everything,
whether in hobby, career, or family. “There’s always more to
learn,” she said. “You can’t learn it all because it all continues
to evolve.”

Known for being more than just a horse show, the American Gold Cup is an experience. A taste of European style
show jumping in America is something one can only enjoy at the American Gold Cup! For those who cannot attend
this iconic event in person, the 2018 American Gold Cup will be showcased on multiple global platforms, from live
streaming on digital outlets such as FEI TV to television
broadcasts on NBC Sports Network.
As one of only seven events that comprise the East Coast division of the Longines FEI World Cup™ Jumping North
American League, the 2018 American Gold Cup will occur shortly after the conclusion of the 2018 FEI World
Equestrian Games™ in Tryon, North Carolina, and most of the members short listed on the NetJets® U.S. Show
Jumping Team are regular competitors at the American Gold Cup including Madden, Ryan, Ward, Laura Kraut,
Adrienne Sternlicht, Margie Engle and Lillie Keenan.
The star-studded roster of equestrian athletes is not limited to those from the United States, however. Past athletes
include Irishmen Shane Sweetnam, Paul O’Shea, Daniel Coyle and 2015 American Gold Cup winner Richie Moloney,
who was the first non-North American athlete to claim the title. South America and Europe continue to have their
countries represented as well, including Ramiro Quintana and Luis Pedro Biraben of Argentina, Beat Mändli of
Switzerland and Liubov Kochetova of Russia.

equestrian community is always supportive and enthusiastic,” Madden
praised.“The atmosphere and the crowds remind us a bit of the
European-style competitions, but it is conveniently located in North
Salem, not far from our home base in Cazenovia, New York.”
World No. 3 ranked athlete, McLain Ward, who also finished in fourth

Medal Finals
Program
Welcome to the OHJA’s 2018 Medal Finals
Riders competed in qualifying OHJA medal classes throughout the show year to accumulate enough points
to secure a place in this years’ Medal Finals competition.
During Medal Finals riders are tested on their horsemanship knowledge and riding ability. “Phase One” of
Medal Finals is a written test on horsemanship that takes place Friday morning, August 30th. All Medal Finals
riders must complete the written test Friday morning before their rst riding round (“Phase Two”). The written
test is worth a total of 10 points. The written test score is combined with the rider’s rst round score; the
combined top ten scores in each division will advance to the Final Round, which takes place during the
afternoon on Saturday, August 31st. Please join us during and after the Final Round for the OHJA BBQ and
Fundraiser, generously sponsored by Purina. Tickets for the BBQ can be purchased in the show ofce or at the
BBQ. All proceeds benet the OHJA, a non-prot organization. Please check with the show ofce for the start
times of these events.
The Oregon Hunter Jumper Association takes this opportunity to thank all of its sponsors, including those that
donated prizes. It is because of the continued support from our sponsors, donors, and members that the OHJA
is able to continue its mission; to bring together the equestrian community, to promote horsemanship and
sportsmanship, to encourage and promote public support of the equestrian community, and to enhance the
knowledge of equestrian competition. I would also like to give a big thank you to Team NW for hosting the
OHJA Medal Finals and for their continued support of the OHJA.
On behalf of the OHJA Board of Directors, we congratulate all of our competitors and wish them the best of
luck!
Sincerely,
Rebekah Swan
OHJA President

What is a Medal Class?
A medal class is an equitation class in which the rider com-
petes to qualify for a “medal nal” at the end of the year.
Who is Eligible to Compete in a Medal Class?
To qualify for the OHJA Medal Finals, a rider must accumu-
late at least 10 points during the show season. However,
once entries close for the show holding the OHJA Medal
Finals, OHJA, in consultation with show management, may
invite up to 10 additional riders who have not accumulated
10 points, starting with the highest point earners
How are OHJA Medal Classes Conducted?
At least 3 riders must complete the course for the class to
count toward the OHJA Medal Finals and for the medal to
be awarded. Riders in the Mini Medal classes compete over
fences not to exceed 2’6”, riders in the Children’s and Adult
Amateur Medal classes compete over fences not to exceed
3’, and riders in the Junior/Senior Medal classes compete
over fences 3’6” in height. There must be a “ride-off” in
each medal class between at least the top 2 riders, with 4
recommended.
How do Riders Accumulate Medal Points?
Points are accumulated based upon a rider’s placing in qual-
ifying classes. Ten points are awarded for 1st place, 6 points
for 2nd place, 4 points for 3rd place, 3 points for 4th place,
and 2 points for 5th place. Riders who win Mini Medal and
Children’s Medal qualifying classes may continue to com-
pete until they accumulate 25 points, and riders who win
Adult Amateur and Junior/Senior Medal classes may con-
tinue to compete until the Medal Finals.
Who is Eligible to Compete
in OHJA Medal Finals?
To qualify for the OHJA Medal Finals, a rider must accu-
mulate at least 10 points during the show season. However,
once entries close for the show holding the OHJA Medal
Finals, show management is allowed to invite up to 10 ad-
ditional riders who have not accumulated 10 points, starting
with the highest point earners.
How are OHJA Medal Finals Conducted?
All riders in the OHJA Medal Finals compete in 1 round over
fences and take a written test. Scores from the 1st round and
written test are combined to determine the top 10 nalists,
who then compete in a 2nd round of testing called a“ride
off”. In the Children’s, Adult Amateur, and Junior/Senior
Medal Finals, the “ride off” is over fences. However, in the
Mini Medal Finals, the “ride-off” cannot include testing over
fences; it must be on the at or the judge may ask the riders
horsemanship questions. Prizes are awarded through 10th
place, entries permitting.

President’s Report
By Diana Axness
For those of you who are actively involved
in Equestrians Institute divisions and
committees, you are most likely aware
that my primary discipline is driving.
I just spent the last week at the EI
Combined Driving Event – setting up at
the facility, volunteering at the show, and
taking it all down aer the event.
Combined Driving is the driven form
of eventing. Like eventing, it is a three
phase event - each requiring a signicant
amount of equipment which has to be set
up and then taken down aer the event.
It literally takes hundreds of hours of
volunteer time from the time we arrive on
site until the time we pull out a week later.
e driving division is fortunate that
they have a group of committee members
who are able and willing to do this week.
In addition to the committee there are
several people who live fairly near to the
venue who come over and help on the
before and aer event work.
Yes, the work to put on the events is
exhausting – both physically and mentally.
But, without people volunteering to do this
work, there wouldn’t be events. And, while
it is exhausting work, the camaraderie
of the people working together and the
appreciation expressed by the event
participants leaves a sense of satisfaction
and makes it all worthwhile.
While I’m writing about my experience
with the driving events, the other
divisions have similar situations. If
you are interested in joining a division
committee or helping at events, please
contact the appropriate division director.

e second of our two recognized
dressage shows for the 2018 season was
also a record breaker attendance wise. It
feels good from a nancial stand point
that we have nally been able to rell our
coers. Our bank account had dwindled
to the point that if we had sustained
another year of recognized show loss,
we would have had to discontinue these
two agship show. I want to thank
everyone for their support in the form of

Driving Report
By Merridy Hance
Photos by Hooeats Photography
e 2018 Equestrians Institute Combined
Driving Event was remarkable.
Drivers with their entourages came
from ve states and provinces in the full
array of competition turnouts: singles,
pairs, tandems, and four-in-hands. All
these drivers are remarkable for their
geniality and synergy as well as their
horsemanship and skills with driving.
We paid tribute to two remarkable men
who were instrumental in building
driving in the Northwest and beyond
— Ron Whiteman and Bob Griswold. In
their memory and in our own continuing
energies, we "Live life like someone le
the gate open."

ODS President's Note:
By Karen Cheeke
As we approach fall, the show season
is winding down. e second weekend
in September is the annual ODS
Championship and Open Show at
Devonwood. It is always a great time to
compete, volunteer, and cheer on your
fellow dressage competitors. For some,
this is also a nal show before competing
two weeks later in USDF Region 6 Finals
at Donida. Another opportunity for
volunteering and cheering on our regional
competitors. e nal session of part 2
of the L Judges program is also going to
be held at Donida during Regionals. We
will soon have several more L graduates
available to judge our ODS League shows.
ank you Francy Haupt for organizing
and running this program.
Be sure and check and see if you
have qualied to be able to compete
in the ODS League Championships
being held at Donida on October 13
and 14. Great opportunity to show at
this beautiful facility under R judges.
And if you haven’t qualied, you can
still ride in open classes. ere are no
qualifying scores needed to compete in
Dressage freestyle or Western Dressage
championships. Come join the fun. And
ODS Chapters should be considering
if they would like to take on this show
for next year. e chapter/chapters
running the show will be able to propose
the venue to the ODS Board. More
details about how to be selected for this
opportunity available soon.
www.oregondressage.com
And those of you who want just one more
USDF/USEF show before the show season
ends in our region, be sure to consider
the State of Jeerson Dressage Show
on October 6 and 7. Your scores count
towards the 2019 Show season at this
show and it is also the last show before
the 2019 USEF Dressage Tests are released
with potential changes.
A lot of clinics and Adult Camps have
happened this past summer and so there
have been plenty of opportunities to learn
from a variety of instructors, trainers, and
judges. It is already time to start planning
for next year’s educational opportunities.
It is important to get your events on the
ODS Calendar. We are busy nalizing the
new ODS Website. Look for it to be live
this fall.
And… our big event this fall is the ODS
Trainers Workshop and ODS Awards
Gala and Symposium. Lisa Wilcox is
teaching at the workshop and will be a
keynote speaker at Awards Gala. e
symposium with Lisa is open to all ODS
members. e links are open to register
for these events. Come join the fun.
As I write this, the ODS Nominating
Committee is preparing the voting for the
2019 board. Watch for the announcement
of the outcome of this election. ank
you to everyone who agreed to run and
take on the responsibility of representing
our membership. I hope some of you will
consider becoming active with the ODS
Board and its committees this upcoming
year. Many opportunities to join in and
volunteer with the amount of time that
ts your lifestyle.

Twin Rivers Chapter
TWIN RIVERS CLASSIC SHOW
Recognized dressage competition is back
in Lane County!
e Twin Rivers Chapter hosted a
recognized dressage competition on
August 18 & 19, 2018 at bucolic Silver Tail
Farm in Creswell, Oregon. e show was
judged by USEF “S” Dressage Judge Heidi
Gaian, USDF Gold, Silver and Bronze
Medalist and “r” judge Kathy Casey, FEI
trainer and rider.
e weekend was a huge success with
riders from Oregon and Washington
competing in classes from Training Level
to Grand Prix. e highlights of the show
were the musical freestyle classes held
on both days in front of standing-room
only crowds. Spectators were treated to
incredibly creative, entertaining and
beautifully choreographed rides. For
members of the public, this was their rst
exposure to dressage and it was a fantastic
way to let them see the “dancing horses.”
e shows high point winners were: Jessica
Wisdom and Contucci Bey owned by Kari
McClain with a 75.435 at training level
test 1 in the Open Division, Joan Sly and
Decadence with a 74.063 at rst level test
2, in t adult Amateur Division, and Junior/
Young Rider: Tori Turner and Weeko with
a 73.182 at training level test 3.
e show’s host, Silver Tail Farm oered
top-class competition and warm-up
arenas with Master’s Blend footing
(Premier Equestrian) and Oregon coast
beach sand. Located midway between
Portland and southern Oregon and just
minutes o I-5, the venue provided an
inviting and low-key atmosphere in a
picturesque setting. is competition was
also the last-chance opportunity to earn
scores needed to qualify for year-end state
and regional championships.
Twin Rivers would like to thank all of
the generous sponsors who helped make
the show a success and the volunteers
who contributed their time and worked
so hard to keep things running smoothly
through-out the weekend.

e Babbler by Andy Lorig:
A VERY BRIEF, INACCURATE HISTORY
OF THE CHASE WITHOUT FOOT NOTES!
All creatures hunt but, it took man to
turn the activity from necessity into
sport. We’re clever that way! At some
point, division of labor turned up in
early “civilization” and there were those
who were fortunate enough to have food
delivered by those less fortunate.
As early as the 4th Century BC the
Greeks were breeding hunting dogs
and it was only a matter of time before
Europe, Asia and everyone else did
likewise. By the Middle Ages enough
forests were cleared and enclosures built
to encourage those of noble birth to
seek amusements that would break the
tedium of wealth. It was a wonderful
way to gather with others and display
outrageously dandy clothing.
Needless to say, the activity was rather
sedate in speed to avoid damaging all that
plumage. eir horses were heavier in
weight and shorter in stature than those
we ride today. It would be centuries before
the nery was boiled down to elegant
simplicity and mounts became larger,
lighter and faster. At the end of the 19th
Century, Italian Horse Master Federico
Caprilli introduced the forward seat and
revolutionized a rider’s ability to remain
in the saddle… sometimes.
While falconers concentrated on small
game, hounds turned their attention
to stags, deer, boar and hare. As
agriculture tamed the wilds of the British
countryside their numbers diminished
but, not the population of wily, clever,

Of course, hunting is no longer the
province of the wealthy alone. Some of
us are just of average means and would
rather hunt than reupholster the couch
or invest in haute couture. Aer all,
everyone looks the same with a helmet
on and are too grimy to lounge on ne
furniture! Tally Ho!
TODAY'S FOXHUNTING
How Does It Dier?
In the US, foxhunting is controlled by
the Masters of Foxhunting Association,
www.ma.com and there are about
150 hunts in the US. ere are two
main types of hunts, those that hunt
live, usually fox, or coyote. WHC is an
example of a "drag" hunt, where runners
(anyone that likes to run in beautiful
countryside is welcome to come try)
"drag" a lure behind them that is soaked
with some wonderful smelling scent
that our foxhounds love to pursue! We
are simulating the excitement of a real
hunt, but as they say, "No animals were
chicken snitching foxes. us, rm in
the knowledge that they were helping
farmers while having a whee of a time,
hunters set their sights and hounds on
pursuit of the inedible. is did not go
unnoticed by Ralph Lauren or the Hunt
Club Bar at the Sorrento Hotel in Seattle.

harmed" in our pursuit.
When the foxhounds "cry" or
"give voice" it is a joy to the
ears of those following!
One reason we love
foxhunting is that it is a
sport for families, we have
several three-generation
families hunting today,
Gloria Sferra and Linda
Kurtenback Harer are
two examples of members
hunting with children and
grandchildren. And it's a
very level playing eld, it
doesn't matter how fancy your horse is, it
just should be safe and fun to ride! O the
track thoroughbreds are favored by many
for their speed and agility, but we have
Morgans, quarter horses, mules, Fjords,
Icelandic ponies, Friesians and mustangs.
And they all make great hunt horses!
Hunting is also a year-round sport,
although the hunting "season" is usually
October through April, we have lots of
summer activities for those that aren't
o showing, following chuck wagons
on the John Wayne Trail, or just taking
the summer o! Visit our website www.
woodbrookhuntclub.com or "Like" us on
Facebook for more information.
Membership is also much more
aordable than some disciplines, you
can hunt year round for the costs of
doing one A-rated horse show! Full-year
memberships range from $150. for a junior
rider to $850. for all your family members,
and non-riders can join as a social member
for $250. and try hunting twice during that
time. Just want to try it? Pay a $50. adult
"capping" or guest fee ($25. for juniors),
contact the MFH or secretary, and we'll get
you started with a member host or hostess
to show you the ropes!
MARK YOUR CALENDERS -
Double Day of Fun in October
Season Opening!
Woodbrook kicks o it's hunt season

e following day is our
Opening Hunt, we will have
a car caravan for non-riders
to experience the thrill of
the chase, and at least three

Hilltopper ight. If you are interested in
hunting, email us at woodbrookhunt-
club@gmail.com, and more information is
available on the website.
BIGGEST HUNTER PACE EVER!
In July we held a Hunter Pace on one of
the hottest days on record, and broke
a record for attendance! Kate Madden
and Marissa Knowlton designed what
was described as the best ever, "funnest"
course we've had. 72 riders showed up,
the course was laid through the shady
woods and prairies of our hunt country,
participants enjoyed a taco food truck,
homemade breakfast goodies, and ice
water at beginning and end of the course.
e pictures tell it all!

PONY CLUBS AND HOUNDS -
It's a Beautiful ing!
On Wednesday, August 8th, WHC
put on a Hound Parade for the West
Coast USPC Finals at Donida Farms in
Auburn. Pony Clubs from all over were
competing in dressage, cross-country
and stadium jumping. WHC's Linda
Hagerman had a booth at the show to
introduce pony clubbers to foxhunting,
and foxhunting sidesaddle! When a pony
clubber hunts with a recognized MFHA
hunt, they are eligible to earn a foxhunting
certication!
Huntsman Jennifer Hansen, MFH
Melody Fleckenstein and whips Sarah
Glaser, Aubrey Roth and Haley Parks
started the parade by entering the
cross-country course crossing an
old-fashioned wooden bridge with the
hounds following behind, and then
paraded them around the eld. At the
end, the pony clubbers were invited to
come in and meet the hounds, and what
a great sight to see hounds loving on the
kids, getting their bellies rubbed and lots
of kisses from little girls! We don't know
who enjoyed it more, the kids or our
foxhounds!
