It seems fairly on brand for us in the horse world to glob on to the newly-unveiled LA28 slogan, “Stars Align”. “The slogan also draws on Los Angeles’ global association with entertainment and creativity, while looking ahead to a historic chapter in the city’s sporting history,” a press release announcing the slogan said. Los Angeles will host its third Olympics in 2028.
Equestrian events will be hosted at Santa Anita, located in Arcadia (though it’s our opinion that they would have been better suited, particularly for eventing, at Galway Downs in Temecula as was the original plan, but hey, what do we know?).
