The 2024 MARS Maryland 5 Star cross-country day saw a field of 21 CCI5* horse-and-rider pairs start the course. By the end of the day, only eight had completed designer Ian Stark’s track of 28 numbered fences.

In the lead is Oliver Townend (GBR) and Ballaghmor Class. David Doel (GBR) and Galileo Nieuwmoed, the only pair to complete the course fault free, jumped 14 spots to second place. And Tim Price (NZL) and Falco sit in third.

Below are photos of the eight horses and riders who will move on to the Second Horse Inspection, which begins at 9:30 a.m. EST Sunday. The show-jumping phase for the CCI5* begins at 3 p.m. EST.
