<p dir="ltr">The smallest margin in the 2026 season wasn't a tenth of a point. It wasn't a hundredth either.</p>
<p dir="ltr">It was 0.005, the smallest non-zero gap the scoring system can produce at three decimal places. It came at AGDF 11, where Ali Potasky beat Devon Kane by five thousandths of a point for fourth. That essentially means they scored the same on every movement except one, where a single half point tipped it in Potasky's favor. <em>And that wasn't even for the win.</em></p>
<p dir="ltr">It also wasn't a fluke either. Seven of 23 qualifiers this season were won by under half a point, two of them by 0.080. Beyond just first and second, there are 19 separate instances of back-to-back riders finishing within 0.35 of each other. Those are some <em>tight</em> ribbons.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">How Close Was It Really?&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>
<p dir="ltr">The season's 23 freestyle classes split into two camps with almost nothing between them. Nine were won by less than six tenths of a point, including the two 0.080 finishes at TerraNova and Del Mar. Ten more were won by over three points. Only four classes fell in between. The median, 2.220, sits right in the emptiest part of the range. Classes were either a photo finish or they weren't close at all.</p>

<div style="font-size: 12px; color: #6b7280; margin-top: 14px; line-height: 1.5;">Every dot is one competition. Its position left to right shows how much the winner won by.</div>
</div>
<p dir="ltr">That pattern goes beyond who wins each class. Across the season, 19 separate placings were decided by 0.35 or less between one rider and the one directly below. Since the leaderboard awards points by where you finish, those small gaps carry consequences. Under the field-size-based scoring system, the difference between third and fourth can be two or three points, and two or three points is exactly what separates a Final invite from missing it.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Take Pablo Gomez Molina. He sits 20th right now, just outside the cutoff, on 27 points. Susan Dutta and Kristina Harrison-Antell are tied for 18th on 29. Gomez Molina needs two points to tie them and expand the field, or three to pass them both and take a spot outright. Nineteen times this season, that two-or-three-point swing on the leaderboard came down to less than a third of a point in the actual score.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The two smallest winning margins of the season were both 0.080: Jackson over Schwartsman at Del Mar, and Kane over Camille Carier Bergeron at TerraNova. Opposite corners of the country, but same nailbiting finish. The venue data doesn't show a strong pattern for where tight margins happen. But one of the two remaining qualifiers is TerraNova, and TerraNova has already produced one of these finishes once this season&hellip; We'll leave you to do the guessing on this one.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">The Trouble with Winning Margins</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Looking only at the winning margin tells you how tight the top of a class was, but it doesn't tell you how competitive the class actually was. Take two shows, both at World Equestrian Center Ocala, five weeks apart.</p>
<p dir="ltr">At WEC January, Charlotte Osborne won on 70.775, with Claire Darnell at 70.560, a margin of only 0.215. Third place that day was nearly four points back. In a lot of ways, it was a two-horse race.</p>
<p dir="ltr">At WEC March, Darnell won on 74.315, nearly four points clear of second. But behind her, Leonardo Godoy and Osborne finished second and third separated by a mere 0.050, four times tighter than the finish that made January look close.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Both classes had only three horses. Both had two riders neck and neck while the other was off on their own. The only difference is whether that fight happened for first or for third. That&rsquo;s why winning margins can only take you so far in class competitiveness. For that, you have to look at where the rest of the field clusters. It&rsquo;s a fascinating puzzle of its own, but one to save for another article.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Cyndi Jackson and Nadine Schwartsman met three times this season, always at Del Mar, always in a field of four. At the Del Mar Opener, Jackson took third, Schwartsman fourth, 0.150 behind. Three weeks later at the Del Mar Affaire, the same two finished first and second, with Jackson ahead again, this time separated by 0.080.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Then in May, it flipped. At the Del Mar National, Schwartsman won on 73.675 and Jackson finished last of the four on 68.700, a swing of 4.975 points. The reversal had been building. Schwartsman and Royal Flash R improved at every start, 69.315 to 70.835 to 73.675, one of only three horses in the series with a clean upward trajectory. Those narrow losses were a horse climbing steadily through the level. Florisson moved up and down instead, and by the third meeting, the two trajectories had crossed. What had twice been a photo finish became a five-point gap. (Jackson did bounce back a month later at the Ginny Rattner Memorial, posting her season best of 72.160, though Schwartsman wasn't there to challenge her.)</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">One More Round at TerraNova</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Two events are left: Devon and TerraNova.</p>
<p dir="ltr">TerraNova has already produced a 0.080 finish and the widest non-AGDF spread of the season, 14.555. There's no telling which one shows up again. Nailbiter or runaway.</p>

The United States Take Bronze at Aachen and Diabolo Finishes Fourth in the World

The Open Weekly: Eventing Team Bronze & Aachen Turns to the Jumping

<p dir="ltr">Out of 11 US Equestrian Open Series riders who took to the arena in the Grand Prix at the Aachen World Championships, five earned their place in Friday&rsquo;s elite top-30 field for the Grand Prix Special.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Overall field leader <strong>Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour</strong> and <strong>Mount St John Freestyle</strong> topped the Grand Prix on 82.376%, followed by <strong>Justin Verboomen</strong> on <strong>Zonik Plus</strong> (80.885%) and <strong>Charlotte Fry</strong> on <strong>Glamourdale </strong>(80.311%). But as Friday approaches, the Grand Prix results become a distant memory. In dressage championship format, the Grand Prix serves strictly as the qualifier; Friday&rsquo;s placings start over from scratch, with riders ranked solely on the results of the Special test to determine which 18 combinations move on to the Grand Prix Freestyle.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Werth Positioned for Medal Pursuit</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Leading the US Equestrian Open cohort into Friday is Germany&rsquo;s <strong>Isabell Werth</strong> riding <strong>Wendy de Fontaine</strong>. Qualifying cleanly in fourth place with a 79.876% in the Grand Prix, Werth enters a test where her statistical record makes her an immediate podium contender.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Wendy de Fontaine brings a formidable Special resume to Friday&rsquo;s competition. Across 10 career Grand Prix Specials, the mare boasts an average score of 78.54% and a career peak of 82.426%. In a standalone test where precision is paramount, Werth and Wendy remain a lethal medal threat.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Top-10 Contention</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Further down the field,&nbsp;<strong>Frederic Wandres</strong> and <strong>Bluetooth OLD</strong> delivered their trademark reliability in the Grand Prix, finishing ninth on 75.963%, right on target with their career Grand Prix average of 75.2%.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In the Special, however, Bluetooth OLD is even stronger. The gelding holds a career average of 75.8% across 13 Specials, with a personal best of 78.340%. In fact, looking strictly at career Special averages, Wandres ranks seventh overall in this 30-rider field. If he rides to his average on Friday, a top-10 finish is well within reach, easily securing his spot in the top-18 Freestyle.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Ecuador&rsquo;s&nbsp;<strong>Julio Mendoza Loor</strong> aboard Jewel&rsquo;s Goldstrike is tied after the Grand Prix for 25th on 71.304% with America&rsquo;s <strong>Christian Simonson</strong> and <strong>Fleau de Baian</strong>.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Mendoza Loor is a proven Freestyle specialist holding a career-high 84.230% to music. While Jewel&rsquo;s Goldstrike has just two Specials on record&mdash;one of which was a gold-medal performance at the 2023 Pan American Games&mdash;Loor is actually 10th in this 30-person field when looking at career averages in the Special. If he rides to form, he should easily make the top-18 cutoff to reach the Freestyle, where his 84-percent-best could contend for a top-5 finish.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Targeting the Top-18&nbsp;</h2>
<p dir="ltr">For the remaining two Series riders, Friday is all about finding every point possible to score within the top-18 so they can ride in Saturday&rsquo;s main event.&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">Canada&rsquo;s <strong>Brittany Fraser-Beaulieu</strong> and <strong>Jaccardo </strong>secured their spot in the Special by placing 22nd on 71.926% in the Grand Prix. With only three career Specials on Jaccardo&rsquo;s record, and a high mark of 74.575%, a clean, mistake-free test gives them the best chance to climb into the top 18.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Simonson and Fleau de Baian enter Friday as a developing combination with two previous Grand Prix Specials on record and a personal best of 71.255%. By matching Mendoza Loor&rsquo;s 71.304% in the Grand Prix, they demonstrated the consistency required to compete in a championship stadium. Their objective for the Special is to secure a score within the top 18 to qualify for the Freestyle. As a new partnership, they&rsquo;ve got one of the lower averages in the field, so it&rsquo;ll be a stretch, but not impossible.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">A Fresh Slate on Friday</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Without music to cushion technical flaws, accuracy and experience will decide who advances. Werth hunts a medal, Wandres and Mendoza Loor look to secure top-10 placings, and the emerging combinations fight to extend their week into the Freestyle.</p>
