Will Coleman is a two-time Olympian and one of the country's most accomplished eventing athletes. Coleman began his riding career when he was just six years old, riding his Shetland Pony, TJ, in the Virginia hunt fields with family and dabbling in multiple disciplines. Coleman’s interest in eventing was cultivated when he attended a clinic with eventing greats Karen and David O’Connor and later went to work for them in the summers.

Coleman’s youth career reached a pinnacle in 2001 when he was the individual gold medalist at the North American Youth Championships. With his Irish Sport Horse, Fox In Flight, he became the first U.S. athlete to win the Bramham CCI4*-L in 2003. The pair made their CCI5*-L debut that same year with a completion at Burghley and were subsequently named to the U.S. Eventing Team short list for the 2004 Athens Olympics.

Coleman made history in 2021, riding Off The Record, owned by Off The Record Syndicate LLC, to victory at the CCIO4*-S at CHIO Aachen, becoming the first American to ever win the prestigious event. At the end of the 2022 season, Coleman was recognized as a USEF International Equestrian of Honor and was awarded the William C. Steinkraus Trophy at the USEF Pegasus Awards. In 2023, he and Off The Record helped the Defender U.S. Eventing Team earn team silver at the FEI Eventing Nations Cup in Boekelo. During the 2024 season, Coleman and Off The Record, alongside emerging mount Diabolo, finished first and second in the Lexington CCI4*-S at the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event.

Coleman was selected to his second U.S. Olympic Eventing Team for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with Diabolo before the horse was withdrawn prior to the start of competition. In 2025, Coleman and Off the Record finished as runners-up in the inaugural US Equestrian Open Eventing Final CCI4*-L at Morven Park in Leesburg, Va.

Coleman and Diabolo reached a career milestone in 2026 by winning the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L, becoming the first horse-and-rider combination to win both the Lexington CCI4*-S and the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L in different years, and just the second U.S. combination to win the CCI5*-L in the past fifteen years.  

Coleman and his wife Katie, a professional eventing and dressage rider, operate Will Coleman Equestrian based in Virginia and Florida. 

Phillip Dutton began riding horses on his family farm while growing up in Australia. He moved to the U.S. in 1991 to prepare for the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games and continued representing his native country until 2006, when he became a U.S. citizen. Dutton has been a mainstay on U.S. teams ever since. Dutton has competed in nearly every Olympic Games in eventing since 1996, winning team gold with Australia in Atlanta 1996 and Sydney 2000, and represented the U.S. Eventing Team in 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. He won individual bronze with Mighty Nice at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. He has competed in seven FEI World Equestrian Games, representing the U.S. for the first time in 2006. He won team gold and individual silver at the 2007 Pan American Games with Truluck and team gold at the 2015 Pan American Games with Fernhill Fugitive.  

Dutton has been the top-finishing American at the Kentucky Three-Day Event several times, winning the USET Foundation Pinnacle Cup in 2017 with Mr. Medicott, 2015 with Fernhill Cubalawn, 2010 with Woodburn, and 2007 and 2008 with Connaught. In 2008, he was also the overall winner of the event. Dutton and Z were fourth at the 2022 Maryland 5 Star and fifth at the 2023 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event presented by MARS Equestrian™ CCI5*-L. 

Dutton has continued to campaign with a top string of CCI4* and CCI5* mounts. Strong top five finishes for both Possante and Denim in the 2025 Lexington CCI4*-S in April helped build momentum for Dutton moving into the summer season. A highlight moment of the summer was a podium with the Defender U.S. Eventing Team at 2025 CHIO Aachen, where Dutton and Possante helped the team secure their third consecutive silver medal in the CCIO4*-NC-S competition, and where they finished in 11th individually, just ahead of barn mate Denim, who took 14th overall. Dutton continued to carry that form through the remainder of the 2025 season, finishing as the overall runner-up in the US Equestrian Open Eventing Series standings, and capped the year with a sixth-place finish aboard Denim at the inaugural US Equestrian Open Eventing Final CCI4*-L at Morven Park International Equestrian Center in October 2025.  

In 2026, Dutton continues to produce results with a talented string of horses, which has included numerous top ten finishes in international competition, including a top ten finish at the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event with Possante, where they took eighth overall. Dutton and Denim captured the win in the CCI4*-S at Bromont in June, where they finished on their dressage score of 29.3.  

Dutton resides in Pennsylvania with his wife Evie, twin daughters, Mary and Olivia, and stepdaughter Lee Lee. 

Boyd Martin, the son of Olympic speed skater Toy (Dorgan) Martin and Olympic cross-country skier Ross Martin, began riding at a young age in his native country of Australia. He made his debut at the CCI5*-L with a win at the 2003 Australian International Three-Day Event riding the Thoroughbred gelding True Blue Toozac.

He moved to the U.S. in 2007 to further his career as an eventing professional, serving as the assistant trainer to Olympian Phillip Dutton for two years before starting his own business. Martin began riding for the U.S. in 2009.

Martin is a three-time Olympian, having represented the U.S. in London 2012, Rio de Janeiro 2016, and Tokyo 2020. He is a four-time U.S. Eventing Team member for the FEI Eventing World Championship, including as a part of the silver medal-winning team in 2022 in Pratoni, Italy. With Pancho Villa, he was a member of the U.S. team that won gold at the 2015 Pan American Games, and in 2019, he won team and individual gold at the Pan American Games with Christine, Thomas, and Tommie Turner's Tsetserleg TSF.

Twice, Martin has been the USEF CCI5*-L Eventing National Champion at the Kentucky Three-Day Event. First in 2019 with Tsetserleg TSF and again in 2021 with Christine, Thomas, Tommie, and his own, On Cue. In October 2021, he won the inaugural Maryland 5 Star with On Cue, becoming the first American to win a CCI5* since 2008.

In 2023, Martin piloted his string to several significant top finishes at the CCI5*-L with five top-ten finishes at events around the world, including two top-ten finishes for Fedarman B at both Luhmuhlen and Pau. Martin brought both Fedarman B and Commando 3 forward as potential Olympic selections at the start of the 2024 season. A strong showing of both at the CCI4*-S at the 2024 Kentucky Three-Day Event did not make selection easy, but Martin ultimately chose Fedarman B as his mount of the 2024 Olympic Games, with Commando 3 as a direct reserve. Paris 2024 will be Martin's fourth consecutive Olympic appearance for the U.S. Olympic Eventing Team. 

Martin and Fedarman B were successful in Paris, adding just 1.6 to their initial dressage score of 30.5. The duo were one of only seven combinations to jump clear in both rounds on the final day, finishing tenth individually and contributing to the team's sixth place. 

In 2025, Martin helped the Defender U.S. Eventing team secure a second-place finish for the third consecutive year at the CHIO Aachen CCI4*-S and later that fall, earned the first ever title as winner of the Inaugural US Equestrian Open of Eventing Final held at Morven Park. Martin also placed on the podium at every CCI5*-L entered in 2025 and subsequently was named the 2025 World Equestrian Brands USEA Rider of the Year. 

The 2026 season started strong for Martin with a podium finish aboard Commando 3, owned by Yankee Creek Ranch, at the Bouckaert CCI4*-S. Martin then claimed a second and third-place finish on Miks Master C, owned by OHP Hammertime Partners, and Shanroe Cooley, owned by Dallas LLC, at the Fair Hill International CCI4*-S the following month. In April 2026, Martin had two strong finishes with Commando 3 and Cooley Nutcracker at the Defender Kentucky Three Day Event CCI5*-L, earning sixth place with Commando 3, and finishing just outside of the top ten with Cooley Nutcracker, owned by Liz’s Nutcrackers.  The following month, Martin and Shanroe Cooley took home third in the Tryon International CCI4*-S before making their first 5* appearance at the Longines Luhmühlen Horse Trials in June coming home with yet another podium finish, earning third place overall.  

Martin and his wife, professional dressage trainer and athlete, Silva Martin, own and operate Windurra USA in Pennsylvania.

Caroline Pamukcu (neé Martin) is a talented young professional who has steadily risen through the USEF Eventing High Performance ranks throughout her career. Pamukcu earned her first international medal in 2013, as the Young Rider individual and team gold medalist in 2013 riding Quantam Solace, her Argentine Sport Horse. 

Pamukcu has represented the U.S. Eventing Team internationally multiple times, including on the second-place teams at the 2022 Houghton Hall (GBR) CCIO4*-NC-S riding Sherrie Martin and her own, Islandwood Captain Jack and the 2023 Strzegom (POL) CCIO4*-NC-S with HSH Blake owned by Caroline and Daniz Pamukcu, Sherrie Martin, and Mollie Hoff. In 2023, Caroline and HSH Blake won individual gold and led the U.S. team to silver at the Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile. 

HSH Blake is a notable product of Pamukcu’s young horse training program. She started competing the 2015 Irish Sport Horse gelding at the novice level in 2020 and in 2022 finished 10^th at the FEI Young Horse World Championship in France. At that same event, she won a silver medal with Sherrie Martin's, Luann McElduff's and her own, HSH Connor who went on to win the 2023 USEF CCI3*-L Eventing National Championship.

The Redfield King's HX Group's 2015 KWPN gelding, King’s Especiale got his start in the show ring as a four year-old with Pamukcu and is now a successful four-star competitor with a second-place finish at the 2023 Morven Park International Horse Trials CCI4*-L and a win in the CCI4*-S at Great Meadow. In 2024, Caroline and King's Especiale were named to the Defender U.S. Eventing Team at the FEI Eventing Nations Cup CCIO4*-NC-S at Millstreet International Horse Trials where they posted the top individual score for the team and assisted in securing a team silver-medal finish. 

With the strong performances of Pamukcu and HSH Blake throughout the 2023 and 2024 season, the pair were named to their first Olympic Team as one of the brightest young combinations for the program. HSH Blake and Pamucku were the first to compete for the team in their Olympic Debut, earning a 30.40 in the dressage phase and finishing on a final total score of 66.8 for 36th place overall and contributing to the team's sixth place finish. 

With over 60 FEI starts in 2025, and an impressive 21 podium finishes, one of the major highlights of Pamukcu’s season was helping the Defender U.S. Eventing Team take silver at the CHIO Aachen CCIO4*-S with her longtime partner, HSH Blake owned by, Mollie Hoff, Sherrie Martin, and Caroline and Deniz Pamukcu. The following month, Pamukcu secured a top twenty finish individually and contributed to the Defender U.S. Eventing Team’s silver medal at the Arville CCIO4*-NC-S with She’s The One, owned by Andy and Mollie Hoff, Sherrie Martin and Caroline Pamukcu. Later that fall, Pamukcu finished third in the US Equestrian Open Eventing Series and went to take fourth overall with HSH Double Sixteen, owned by Double Sixteen Partnership, in the US Open Eventing Final CCI4*-L at Morven Park International. To conclude their 2025 competition season, Pamukcu piloted HSH Blake in his first CCI5*-L at the MARS Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill where the pair came home with a strong fourth-place finish.  

Pamukcu and her team continued to showcase their consistency and strength in 2026 with a win at the Bouckaert Equestrian H.T. International CCI4*-S aboard HSH Connor, owned by Sherrie Martin, Luann McElduff, and Caroline Pamukcu. Just a short month later, Pamucku secured her tenth US Open Qualifier win with HSH Double Sixteen at the Fair Hill International CCI4*-S as the only combination to go double clear in the cross-country phase.  

Entering the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L with a strong spring season, Pamukcu doubled down with a second-place finish with HSH Blake, earning Defender/USEF CCI5*-L National Reserve Champion honors in her highest-ever finish at the event. Pamukcu’s talent continued to shine at the MARS Bromont CCI Three Day Event with two podium finishes in the CCI4*-L with She’s The One and HSH Double Sixteen.  

Tamra "Tamie" Smith is one of the United States' most accomplished eventing athletes. A member of the U.S. Eventing Team which won gold at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru, aboard Mai Baum, Smith has represented the United States at multiple FEI championships, including the 2022 FEI Eventing World Championship, where she helped the team earn silver and finished ninth individually.  

Smith's partnership with Mai Baum has been a cornerstone of her international career. Following a top ten finish in the horse's CCI5*-L debut at the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event in 2021, the pair competed at the 2022 Badminton Horse Trials before helping the U.S. earn team silver at the FEI Eventing World Championship later that year in Pratoni del Vivaro, Italy.  

In 2023, she dominated the Galway Downs Spring International CCI4*-S, finishing first with Mai Baum, second with Danito, and fifth with Solaguayre California. Smith and Mai Baum made history that year by winning the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L, becoming the first U.S. horse-and-rider combination to win the event since 2008. She also earned a team and individual podium finish at CHIO Aachen, placing third in the CCIO4*-NC-S, and helping the team secure silver.  

Throughout the 2024 season, Smith continued campaigning her competitive string of horses at the national and international levels, including Mai Baum, Kynan, Lillet 3, and Sumas Tina Turner. Notable wins included, Galway Downs International Spring CCI4*-S with Mai Baum, the Woodside Spring Horse Trials CCI3*-S with Kynan, and the Galway Downs International Fall Horse Trials CCI3*-L aboard Lillet 3.  

In 2025, Smith continued producing top international horses, which saw a breakout season for newer mount, Lillet 3. Smith carried her momentum into 2026, where she and Lillet 3 captured the Lexington CCI4*-S title after delivering the only double-clear show jumping round of the competition. The victory marked another historic achievement for Smith, becoming the first athlete to win both the Lexington CCI4*-S and the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L, accomplishing the feat on two different horses. 

Based in Temecula, California, Smith has operated Next Level Eventing since 2005, where she trains riders and develops horses from the young horse level through international competition.
