THEAULT ON THE ROAD
It's been quite a busy winter for Theault America with several more vehicles sold to happy customers but with the sun now shining in the North it's time to hit the road again.....
Another Thrilling Year at The Rolex Kentucky 3 Day Event!
Another busy Rolex Kentucky 3 Day Event has come to an end. It was a thrilling time for the crew at Theault-America, going back to the blue grass state to support ambassador Boyd Martin, as well as many other of our favorite international riders. Boyd started out in top form on his young horse Trading Aces, laying down a stellar dressage test and moving into XC within shot of a top 10 finish.
Unfortunately, as this was Oscar's first 4*, the course proved just a bit too long, so Boyd pulled up with the finish line in site. Always the consummate horseman, Boyd realized that the risk of injury was not worth going for broke, but Oscar showed amazing aptitude for being a top international competitor. Check out this video of his form going through the Sunken Road!
