James "Jimmy" Fairclough has represented the United States throughout his driving career and been a member of multiple medal-winning U.S. Driving Teams, including the silver-medal winning teams at the 2002 and 2010 FEI Driving World Championships, as well as a member of the gold-medal winning team at the 2018 FEI Driving World Championships in Tryon.  

In 2026, Fairclough piloted his team to a second-place finish at the Live Oak International CAI3*-H4, as well as a win at the Bromont Horse CAI3*-H4, setting the team up nicely for a strong summer ahead.

Chester Weber was raised on his family’s Live Oak Plantation and began driving competitively at a young age. At the age of 18, he was the youngest driver to be named to a U.S. team, competing in the FEI World Driving Championships for Pairs. Weber went from driving a pair of horses to a four-in-hand of horses in 1999 and has had much national and international success.

Weber is a five-time WEG competitor (2018, 2014, 2010, 2006, and 2002), including Tryon 2018 team gold medalist and individual silver-medalist, Normandy 2014 individual silver and Jerez de la Frontera 2002 team silver. He is a four-time FEI World Driving Championships for Four-in-Hand competitor (2016, 2012, 2008, and 2004), including Riesenbeck 2012 individual silver and team bronze and Beesd 2008 individual silver. Weber has an unprecedented amount of national championship wins with his 19 USEF Advanced Four-in-Hand Horse Combined Driving National Champion titles (2022-2012, 2010-2003) and two USEF Advanced Pair Horse Combined Driving National Champion titles (1998 and 1996).

In 2022, Weber and his team began the season by winning the CAI3*-H4 at Live Oak International, followed by a fourth-place finish at the Royal Windsor Horse Show CAIO4*-H4 World Cup Qualifier. Weber won his 19^th USEF Advanced Four-in-Hand Horse Combined Driving National Championship title at the Kentucky Classic CDE. Next up, he was sixth in the CHIO Aachen CAIO4*-H4 World Cup Qualifier.

Chester Weber has been a mainstay on the U.S. Driving scene for more than three decades and was a member of the U.S. Driving Team which earned gold at the 2018 FEI Driving World Championships in Tryon, where he also secured individual silver, alongside his individual silver from the 2014 FEI Driving World Championships in Normandy, France.   

Weber is poised for another top year, with eyes set on the 2026 FEI Driving World Championships in Aachen later this summer. Weber and team started off their season with a top podium finish in the CAIO3*-H4 at TerraNova Equestrian Center before capturing his 23rd national championship title in the Advanced Four-In-Hand division at Live Oak International. Across the pond at the Royal Windsor Horse Show he held his position following the dressage phase to finish second overall in the CAIO4*-H4, where he also helped the Defender U.S. Driving Team capture fourth place. Most recently, at his last outing in June, Weber and team secured a second-place finish at the Szilvásvárad CAIO4*-4H WCQ on a final score of 151.71.
