Maryland CCI4*-S Preview
It’s time for the Maryland leg of the US Equestrian Open, and the field couldn’t be closer.

Maryland International at Loch Moy kicks off tomorrow for the 14th qualifier of the US Equestrian Open. It is a stacked field and with a good amount of entries, it is looking to be a hot competition.
Prediction Centre
The EquiRatings Prediction Centre gives Caroline Pamucku a 50% overall win chance at Maryland. But don't count out Jennie Brannigan and Connery – the 2023 winners are back after having the fastest cross-country time of day. Hard ground is forecast this weekend, so a quick cross country round will be key — minimising time penalties could really shake up the leaderboard.
