Oscar at the 2013 Rolex Kentucky three-day event |
After winning the $50,000 Wellington Eventing Showcase, Trading Aces stayed on in Florida with Marcia Kulak, who put him in training and transformed the world-class eventer into an equitation horse. While Oscar has always shown a lot of talent, he simply lacks the endurance to be successful in upper-level eventing. We hope that he will have a happy and successful future with his new rider, Alexandra Pielet, in the junior ranks.

I'm going to miss seeing Oscar in eventing, but I'm happy Boyd made the decision to sell him because he couldn't make it in eventing.
