The end of April has no shortage of events in the bluegrass region of Kentucky. Upwards of 90,000 people will converge on Kentucky Horse Park grounds over the next few days for the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event presented by MARS Equestrian.
For more than four decades the best eventing riders and horses have come to central Kentucky with high expectations. With the Summer Olympic Games only months away, Press Chief Marty Bauman said high international interest only gets stronger this time.
“Winning at Kentucky or finishing really well at Kentucky carries a lot of weight. You know, we are one of only seven five-star three-day events in the world,” said Bauman.
