Eventing riders jumped on the chance to ride with Ian Stark and about 20 regional professionals Jan. 18-19 during Galway Downs’ 21st annual fundraising clinic in Temecula. Throughout the weekend, small groups of students and coaches roamed the cross-country track to refine their skills over segments of the track. Private dressage coaching was also available, and plenty of unmounted auditors picked up tips, too.
