![]() Harley Brown and Cassiato. |
Brown has now taken the outright lead of the FEI World Cup standings (USA West Coast) on 89 points, with Mandy Porter second on 80 points. There are only two qualifiers remaining before the final in Las Vegas in April so barring any unfortunate circumstances, it seems Brown has secured his berth to the finals.
Brown has been a very consistent performer with one win, a second placing and three third placings in the last six starts. He incurred just four faults over these six World Cup classes on Cassiato.
Brown, who moved to the US in 2003, has built a very successful business in a tough market. With Olivia Dawson-Grove, he runs a training and sales business called Harley Brown Equestrian Inc on the Central Coast of California in a San Luis Obispo. They have about 35 horses in training - jumpers, hunters and equitation horses. About half of these horses are sales and horses for them to ride and the other half are owned by clients who they train.
