During what was supposed to be a fun-filled weekend of "indoor eventing" at the inaugural Express Eventing International Cup in Cardiff, Great Britain, the eventing world said goodbye to one of the most popular eventing horses - Call Again Cavalier.

image Secrets of the Top Equestrian Trainers: Interviews with Tina Sederholm (David & Charles 2005)

The state of American publishing on eventing is so sorry that we have to turn to a British publisher to hear from an American Gold Medalist. In “The Language of Horses,” David O'Connor talks about the use of western training and loose jumping in his training methods. He finishes with a plea to “Break down the silos that everybody is in – I'm an eventer, I'm a natural horseman, I'm a hunter rider – if we are going to make some changes. The problem with that thinking is that we don't think of ourselves as horsemen, in an equine industry. So show jumping tries to promote itself, and eventing tries to promote itself, and dressage tries to promote itself, but the numbers aren't big enough. Whereas if we promoted ourselves much more as a horse industry, our numbers would be huge.”
