The famous Devon Horse Show brought the best juniors together for Junior Weekend, but on Monday it was the professional athletes' chance to have the spotlight in the Dixon Oval as Senior Week got underway. Tori Colvin and Brad Wolf's Private Practice had back-to-back wins over fences in the Green 3'9" Hunter division as a packed crowd looked on.

"We are looking forward to supporting the Devon Horse Show this year and the junior equitation divisions," said Dover Saddlery CEO Brad Wolansky. "We recognize the dedication and hours of training all of these riders have devoted to compete at this very prestigious event . The longstanding dedication to the sport and heritage of the Devon Horse Show pairs perfectly with the values of Dover Saddlery and commitment to our customers and community."

Dover Saddlery was founded in 1975 by Jim and David Powers, former members of the U.S. three-day eventing team. After returning from the Olympic Games in Germany in 1972, Jim sought out to offer a saddlery shop dedicated to providing a broad selection of the best quality tack available. Today, Dover Saddlery has grown to offer a broad and distinctive selection of competitively priced, brand name products for horse and rider through catalogs, online and 34 retail stores nationwide, including two that are local to the Devon Horse Show in Warrington, Pennsylvania, and Hockessin, Delaware.

While in the area for the horse show, riders and spectators alike are invited to check out the expansive selection in both the Warrington, Pennsylvania, and Hockessin, Delaware, stores. Dover Saddlery's employees are active riders and competitors, including Carolanne Messina, the manager of the Hockessin store, who has been riding since she was 3 years old.

"It is exciting to have all of the Devon competitors and exhibitors in our backyard and we welcome all of you to visit us at the Hockessin or Warrington store locations for anything you or your horse may need during your stay," said Messina.

Her thoughts are echoed by Suzie McGlinchey, manager of the Warrington store, who says, "We wish all riders the best of luck during the show and look forward to a great week ahead."
