Combined driving is often compared to three-day eventing, the sport from which it was derived. However, when watching the marathon phase, it’s more like the rally racing done with sports cars. In the marathon phase of a combined driving event, drivers navigate through complex hazards over a cross-country course with one, two, or four horses. Without the leg and seat aids that riders use, drivers rely heavily on voice commands to direct their horses.

Well, that was fun! That’s the view I usually have! And I’m glad to know I’m not alone in making funny noises when I drive.
WOW, that is fun but yet scary! Those are some tight turns and tight spots. Amazing that the cart don’t get a wheel hung up on the obstacles!
Thanks for the ride, breathe taking and yet scary at times!
So I guess driving through the barn at the end is really safer than out on that course! That was hairy to me!
