Horses and riders in 12 divisions from Starter to CCI4*-S tackled the show jumping phase of competition at The Event at TerraNova, in Myakka, Florida, over a track designed by Nick Granat in the world-class setting of the main arena. Prize money was awarded in all divisions.

The day started with a non-denominational worship service in the rider lounge. Pastor Rick Mihm led the service, offering riders a chance for quiet reflection and concluding with participants giving thanks for their blessings. Patrons and riders enjoyed gourmet fare and cocktails as part of the VIP experience in a tent pavilion overlooking the main arena.

Leslie Law and Lady Chatterley, a Canadian-bred Holsteiner mare, won the CCI4*-S; he was also 3rd aboard Typically Fernhill and won the open prelim with Shirsheen Ice, while Canadian Lesley Grant-Law was third in the division with Fernhill Finalist and won the Open Intermediate riding Castle Howard Romeo.

In the CCI4*-S, sponsored by B&D Builders, overnight leader Jennie Jarnstrom-Dennis (SWE) and Hanoverian mare Flower Girl (Futurist x Lucy/Romino) had four rails down in show jumping. Leslie Law (GBR) of Ocala and Lady Chatterley took the win. Law was ranked second on Lady Chatterley after dressage. A Canadian-bred Holsteiner mare that Law owns in partnership with Jackie and Steve Brown, Lady Chatterley (Connor 48 x Jucy/Mytens XX) jumped exactly on the optimum time of 81.29 seconds.
