Gladstone, NJ (May 31, 2017) – Internationally competitive dressage rider Adrienne Lyle – dubbed a “Premier Equestrian” by leading arena footing, dressage arena, and horse jump company Premier Equestrian – demonstrated her https://www.adriennelyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Steffen-Peters-Dressage-US-Equestrian-534×800-1-1.jpg status at The Dutta Corp U.S. Dressage Festival of Champions this past weekend. Lyle, the only rider to compete on three different horses in the Festival of Champions, rode away with the overall title of U.S. Dressage Intermediate I National Champion, the Patsy Albers Award, and several other victories. Premier Equestrian is thrilled to congratulate Lyle for her accomplishments.

Raised on a small cattle ranch in the state of Washington, Lyle has grown her dressage career from its start in the Young Rider division to heights such as representing the U.S. at the 2012 Olympic Games. Her recent success at the Dressage Festival of Champions held in Gladstone, New Jersey, marks another accomplishment to add to her ever-growing career.

“I have never had three horses qualify for the National Championships, and I was so proud of each horse and the incredible efforts they put in all week,” Lyle said after the show.

On the final day of competition, Lyle’s winning freestyle ride (75.5 percent) on Horizon, a 10-year-old Oldenburg mare owned by Betsy Juliano, brought the pair’s cumulative score high enough to secure the overall U.S. Dressage Intermediate I National Championship. “She put in a flawless test to win the class,” Lyle said. “I loved the harmony and softness of that freestyle.”

Lyle also piloted Salvino, a 2007 Hanoverian stallion owned by Salvino Partners LLC, to the Reserve Champion title in the U.S. Dressage Grand Prix National Championship, as well as first place in the FEI Grand Prix Freestyle.

“He had never done a freestyle before and I had no idea how he would handle the environment, but when the music started playing, he totally loved it,” Lyle said. “I personally love the freestyles the best, and it was really fun to see how much Salvino was enjoying it, too!”

Lyle earned another impressive accolade with Salvino by achieving the highest score of the entire Festival of Champions – the Patsy Albers Award for the 76.325 percent that she and Salvino scored in the FEI Grand Prix Freestyle.

Lyle also rode Harmony’s Duval, owned by Duval Partners LLC, to a third place finish overall in the Intermediate I Championships. Even with his limited show experience, the nine-year-old Dutch Warmblood gelding showed his talents in the arena. “He marched into that big ring and really stepped up to the plate,” Lyle said. “It gave me goosebumps to feel glimpses of how much more horse there is still in there to develop.”

Premier Equestrian applauds its sponsored rider Lyle for displaying the company’s standard for excellence at The Dutta Corp. U.S. Dressage Festival of Champions. As the Official Footing Supplier of the US Equestrian, Premier Equestrian’s indoor and outdoor arena footing has been developed with equine biomechanics, performance, and injury prevention in mind. Backed by research, Premier Equestrian footing products help keep Lyle’s dressage horses safe and performing to their best ability.

“Premier Equestrian makes the absolute best footing available on the market, and that is of the utmost importance to me,” Lyle said. “We invest so much time and money into our horses and we absolutely need to make sure they have footing that will keep them safe, sound, and performing at their best!”

Lyle’s plan for the rest of the summer includes giving her three National Championship athletes a week of “trail riding, fun, and relaxation.” She then plans to take all three to Germany in July to compete in CDIs on the European circuit.

RETURNING OLYMPIANS ADRIENNE LYLE, STEFFEN PETERS HIGHLIGHT U.S. DRESSAGE TEAM

Steffen Peters has an Olympic medal older than the horse he’ll ride in dressage this summer at his fifth Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Peters, 56, and Suppenkasper, 13, form one of four athlete-and-horse combinations announced to the U.S. Olympic dressage team Thursday by US Equestrian. They’ll join Olympian Adrienne Lyle and Salvino, Sabine Schut-Kery and Sanceo, along with Nick Wagman and Don John as the traveling reserve. They’ll all be looking to get Team USA to the top of the Olympic dressage podium for the first time ever.

Lyle, 36, made her Olympic debut in 2012 aboard Wizard. She placed 37th competing in the individual event. With Salvino, a 14-year-old Hanoverian stallion, she competed at the 2018 World Equestrian Games and helped the U.S. win the team silver medal. 

Peters is a native of Germany who moved to the U.S. in 1984 and became a citizen in 1992. He made his Olympic debut in 1996 aboard Udon, winning a bronze medal with the U.S. team. Peters has gone on to medal at three World Equestrian Games, most recently in 2018 aboard Suppenkasper. Peters won his second Olympic medal, a bronze, in Rio five years ago riding Legolas 92.

Schut-Kery, 52, also hails from Germany and came to the U.S. in 1998. She has been teamed with Sanceo since the 2015 Pan American Games when she won the gold medal on a team that included Peters. Schut-Kery and Sanceo were on the FEI Nations Cup-winning team in 2018.

Wagman, who will turn 48 during the Games, competed in the 2019 FEI Dressage Nations Cup in Geesteren, Netherlands, and also in France where the U.S. won bronze. 

Additionally, two athlete-horse combinations were named as alternates: Olivia LaGoy-Weltz and Rassing’s Lonoir along with Ben Ebeling and Illuster van de Kampert.
