Brandon McMechan (CAN) riding Oscar’s Wild rose to the task this weekend at the Bromont CCI-S Horse Trials in Bromont, Quebec, winning the CCI4*-S after adding just 4 jumping penalties on the Sarah Roberts-designed show jumping course and 5.2 time over a tightly-wheeled Derek Di Grazia cross-country course, giving them a final score of 38.5

“We just have a great relationship,” says Brandon of Oscar’s Wild, a 12-year-old thoroughbred gelding which Brandon owns with his father Glenn and was sourced by fellow competitor, Kendal Lehari and her mother, Gwen.

Brandon, a Toronto-based chiropractor, when asked about his weekend said, “I love it here. I try to get all my friends to come for a little cottage weekend, come watch the show and it’s so close to Montreal they can buzz over there.”
