Take us through your ride today.

QI: I have Bille Davidson’s Beckham 19 in the U25, and we had a good test today. He was very honest and unfortunately at the end he pulled a shoe but he kept dancing! He danced right out of his shoes. He was a very good boy.

Do you feel more pressure coming back as the defending champion?

QI: I definitely feel a little bit of pressure, but at the same time, I’ve had a year to get to know this horse a little more and hopefully we can at least showcase what we’ve learned within that year, no matter the outcome.

What made you decide to come back to compete in the Brentina Cup this year?

QI: This is my last year doing the U25, so I thought I might as well do it one more time and then get to go play with the big dogs.

How is it being here with your trainer, Adrienne Lyle?

QI: She is absolutely incredible. She can do anything and everything I’ve ever done. It’s really fun because the first year I was here, I was actually grooming for her with Betsy Juliano’s Horizon. The year after that, I brought my first Young Riders horse here, and now I have Beckham here, so it’s really cool to keep going even with different horses, the same team keeping everything going.
