Gladstone, NJ—September 22, 2003—Chester Weber of Ocala, FL, emerged victorious in the United States Equestrian Team (USET) Four-in-Hand Championship at the Gladstone Driving Event in Gladstone, NJ, September 19-21.

At the Event, held at Hamilton Farm Golf Club and Equestrian Center, home of the USET Headquarters and Olympic Training Center, Weber won the dressage phase of competition with a score of 39.36 penalties. He placed second to Tucker Johnson of Hobe Sound, FL, in the marathon, scoring 100.34 penalties to Johnson’s 99.83. Weber had a clear cones round to clinch the win with a final score of 139.70 penalty points.

James Fairclough of Newton, NJ added pressure to Johnson’s hold on the Reserve Champion title by going clean in cones. Unfortunately, Johnson had two balls down, giving Fairclough the Reserve Champion title (9th time), as Johnson dropped to third place.
