So when IS Horse Prom? I don't see it listed.

Lord knows Mittens has made me curious about the event. I know a little about it, having had a friend who had Saddlebreds years ago, but now it's just prurient interest.

Besides, Ann needs our support since her husband has turned his back on her.

I'm going to guess even FLOTUS will root for Ann's horse and the rider.

Doubtless Rafalca is well-documented.

The Grand Prix test runs 8/2-3.
The Grand Prix Special (which is a shorter, more densely packed, test) is 8/7.
The Grand Prix Freestyle is 8/9. This is where you see the musical (or muzakal, sadly) performance.

There are 2 sets of medals: team and individual

The tests are progressive, i.e. the top scorers from each phase advances to the next phase.

The team medals go to those with the best combined scores from the GP and GPS. The individual medals go to the best Freestyle performances.
