The Volvo CCI3* Bromont Three Day Event, The Todd Sandler Challenge, to be held June 6 to 9 in Bromont, Quebec, is once again attracting North America’s top equestrian athletes. Bromont is Canada’s only three day event sanctioned at the three-star level by the International Equestrian Federation (FEI). The Bromont organizing committee, which will celebrate the event’s 27th anniversary in 2013, is preparing to welcome over 150 horses and riders to one of North America’s most prestigious equestrian competitions.

Among the confirmed entries for the 2013 Volvo CCI3* Bromont Three Day Event is Bruce (Buck) Davidson, Jr. of Unionville, PA, who has competed at Bromont for the past five consecutive years. The defending Champion of the 2012 Bromont CCI1* division riding Copper Beach, Davidson was a member of the gold medal-winning American team at the 2011 Pan American Games, where he also won the individual bronze medal.

Another past winner at Bromont who will be returning to this year’s competition is Phillip Dutton of West Grove, PA. A native of Australia, Dutton was a member of that country’s gold medal team at both the 1996 and 2000 Olympic Games before becoming a U.S. citizen and representing his adopted country at the past two Olympics.
“I’m very much looking forward to this year’s Bromont Three Day Event,” said Dutton, who has been named the U.S. Eventing Association’s Leading Rider for 13 of the past 15 years. “It’s always a great competition with the best horses and riders from the U.S. and Canada competing. The cross-country, the atmosphere, and the overall friendliness of Bromont make for a great event.”
