Elkton, MD - There was a plenty at stake at the Dansko Fair Hill International, as 44 CCI2* horses and 24 CCI3* horses went to task in the USEF National Eventing Championships over Sally Ike's show jumping courses on a perfect October day.
Hannah Burnett did something no one has ever done, the 2009 National CCI2* Champion returned to Fair Hill with Richard Thompson's St. Barths and finished on her dressage score to claim the 2010 USEF National CCI3* Eventing Championship 12 months later.
Clark Montgomery (Chattahoochee Hills, GA) was not going to be outdone this weekend as he stormed to both Champion and Reserve honors in the USEF National CCI2* Eventing Championship. Riding Loughan Glen, a seven-year-old Irish Thoroughbred gelding owned by Kathryn Kraft and Holly Becker, Montgomery won the dressage and never looked back. He picked up .8 time faults on the cross country but jumped perfectly over Sally Ike's show jumping track today to win convincingly over his other ride, Universe.

After four rounds of competition Hayley Barnhill riding Podest was named the winner, narrowly beating out Samantha Schaefer riding Pioneer who took second.
Following the completion of the first round, 28 riders were called back for round two, riding over the same course of nine jumps in reverse order.
