The Event College at Rolex: Selecting Studs for Cross-Country with Max Corcoran

Apr 29, 2017

Most event horses have shoes tapped with stud-holes so that grooms/riders can screw in studs to give the horses better traction while galloping around cross-country. Max Corcoran shows us a good basic set of studs to start you off, as well as the studs that you'd see the grooms and riders at the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event putting in their horses shoes for the track. Watch the video to learn more.

Class is now in session with the 2017 Virtual USEA/PHC Event College!

Event College is a special series designed to educate the general public on the sport of Eventing. Tune in to learn from “professors” such as Lauren Kieffer, Max Corcoran, Kurt Martin, Hannah Sue Burnett and Jen McFall. These video classroom sessions give you a first-hand look at the competition as it happens at a CCI***.
