In a new format for this year, the Collecting Gaits Farm/USEF National Junior, Young Rider, and Young Adult (“Brentina Cup”) Dressage Championships will all be held in Gladstone, NJ, June 14–17, 2007, in conjunction with the Collecting Gaits Farm/USEF National Intermediaire I and Grand Prix Championships at the United States Equestrian Team (USET) Foundation/Collecting Gaits Farm Dressage Festival of Champions. “Bringing the top horses and riders from all five divisions together will be an unprecedented event,” says Jennifer Keeler, USEF National Director of Dressage. “Having the top competitors in the country, from juniors to Olympians, all together in one location will be a fabulous opportunity to showcase not only the sport but our country’s developing talent in dressage.”

National ranking lists for the Junior, Young Rider, and Young Adult “Brentina Cup” divisions have been developed and are now posted on the USEF website via each division link at www.usef.org/content/equestrianSports/disciplines/international/dressage.php. These ranking lists will be updated on a weekly basis and will be used to determine invitations to the national championships and other USEF Dressage Developing Program opportunities.
