2012 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event and Ariat Kentucky Cup Reining

From April 26-30, 2012 the Kentucky Horse Park was host to the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event, the only four-star eventing competition in North America. After the success of last year’s Ariat Kentucky Reining Cup and Freestyle Reining World Championship, event organizers decided to continue the new western tradition of Rolex week for another year.
