OCALA, Fla.--Chester Weber added another title to his long list of accomplishments, winning his 21st USEF Combined Driving National Championship for Advanced Four-in-Hand Horses on Sunday, March 17 at Live Oak International.
Weber was the wire-to-wire leader, beginning with a commanding lead after Thursday’s dressage test where he scored a 39.59.
Weber then won Saturday’s marathon phase, posting the best time on all seven of the obstacles, amd he secured the win on Sunday with the fastest cones round and only six faults, finishing on a score of 167.45.
“The horses were in really good form,” said Weber. “They showed up with a nice, solid dressage test on the first day. For the cross-country, we drove a combination that I thought would be very fast. It was a super challenging course, but the team handled it very well and took all of the questions and challenges in hand and did a great job with it.”
