Chester Weber aiming for his 15th national title at Live Oak

On the calendar this weekend is the U.S. national driving championships. Four-in-hand driver Chester Weber is defending his national title on home turf in Live Oak, Florida and hopes to top the podium once again for what would be his 15th championship.

Chester Weber is not only a competitor, but also the organizer of the competition. Defending his title at home seems to have an advantage, but it also creates an enormous amount of pressure:’I try to train my horses early in the morning so that I can make the switch to event organizer’, says the American.

Using the horses that he also hopes to use this year at WEG in Tryon, Webers dressage team will consist of his KWPN horses Splash (v. Nando) and First Edition, Boris (v. Talos) and Asjemenou (v. Patijn) and in the marathon Reno will take the place of Splash.
