2024 Paris Olympics US Equestrian Team Jumping

Team USA won Silver in Equestrian Jumping with the Individual competitions yet to unfold. We gathered informative interviews from 3 experts including HOF Olympiad Joe Fargis.
The 2024 Paris Olympics are one of the most spectacular equestrian productions in modern history. The Versailles Gardens are as glamorous as they are iconic. The French added their artistic attention to detail and the Americans entered one of their most talented Olympic Jumping Teams. The original Team USA was composed of former Olympic medalists McLain Ward riding Ilex, Laura Kraut riding Baloutinue and Kent Farrington on Greya. The highly qualified alternate is Karl Cook, riding Caracole de la Roque.
Karl Cook was summoned to substitute for Kent Farrington, whose horse Greya was reported to have had an allergic reaction. Ward, Kraut and Cook will next be riding in the individual competitions hoping to win another medal. All are riding their best mounts. Whether or not they medal is often determined by small imperfections. The individual qualifier is on August 5th and the individual final competition takes place on August 6th.
WuzUpDoc’s 30-minute video captures the excitement and details prior to the Jump-Off Finals. We also discussed the option of substituting the alternate rider, should the circumstances warrant. That is exactly what happened. Enjoy! DrB WuzUpDoc.com Media

2023 Travers-Saratoga 3-min Pre-Race Trailer

This pre-Travers coverage drew one of my largest single audiences and still draws viewers. It contains discussion of the 4 major horses of 2023 meeting up against each other at the most significant mid-Summer race at Saratoga. Trainers and horses include HOF Tr. Pletcher w ‘Forte’, which won Eclipse Award 2-yr-old of year who was disqualified under contention from KY Derby; Trs. Delgado w KDerby winner Mage; Preakness winner National Treasure for HOF/Controversial (banned from KDerby) Tr. Baffert; HOF Tr. Lukas discussing Arrogate who won Travers in 2016 & who sired 2023 Belmont Stakes winner Archangelo thereby making Tr. Antonucci the first female to win a Triple Crown Race and being interviewed by every major TV outlet; HOF Tr. Zito (who rarely gives any interviews these days) & Tr. Romans (who shares a moving personal story about beating 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah with Keen Ice as he won the Travers; HOF Tr. Mott discussing his entry Scotland and his current most talked about horse who was named 2023 Eclipse Award Horse of the Year ‘Cody’s Wish’, and others. Saratoga has historically been named “The Graveyard of Champions” and I believe I captured the personal side of track legends whom the public never gets to meet, especially not all at the same race. The style of my interview is more of a historical documentary nature in advance of the event. Eclipse Award Horse of the Year honors and $1.25 Million was on the line, plus future breeding value of 2023’s best 4 contenders. I can’t recall such a significant Travers having ever occurred, at least not in my lifetime. This show will be replayed long after I’m gone! Best DrB aka HorseDoc®
