"Desert Flight" is an award-winning film documentary that explores the horse-human bond through the world of show jumping. Filmmaker Samia Staehle’s goal was to capture the visceral way horses enrich our lives and our senses. The film provides an honest look at how much the sport of show jumping means to its participants through the perspectives of equestrians from different walks of life. Shot over three weeks during the climactic end of the HITS Thermal horse show circuit in California, "Desert Flight" is both visually stunning and artistically compelling. Samia, a former Associated Press news producer and amateur show jumper from Washington state, chose the Thermal show grounds for her work partially because the stunning beauty of the desert reminded her of her former home in India. "Desert Flight" includes interviews from such luminaries of the sport as Richard Spooner, Will Simpson, Mandy Porter and Richard Fellers, but also includes vignettes from lesser-known equestrians with big dreams. "Desert Flight" was filmed by Tell Studios, whose Detroit, Michigan, based crew had no experience with horses. Instead, they were told to “go out and find what drives these horse people to do what they do every day.” "Desert Flight" made its world premiere at the FEI World Equestrian Games in Tryon, North Carolina, September 2018. The 39-minute film was named Best of Festival and Best Documentary at the 2018 EQUUS Film Festival in New York City and is available to US Equestrian Federation members on the USEF Network.   Topics of Discussion: [:24] About today’s episode with Samia Staehle.

Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital in Lexington, Kentucky, is an international leader in veterinary medicine, providing specialized medical and surgical care to all equine breeds and disciplines. Dr. W. Thomas Riddle and Dr. Bill Rood founded the full-service equine hospital in 1986 and, ever since, it’s known throughout the world for its commitment to quality care and relationships with clients and the surrounding community. Its talented staff has provided full-service medical and surgical support to some of the most famous equines in the world, earning the practice the nickname of “the Mayo Clinic for horses.” Now owned by 26 shareholders, Rood & Riddle has satellite campuses in Saratoga Springs, New York, and Wellington, Florida.   Rood & Riddle is actively involved in owner education and outreach. In recognition of their connection to the Thoroughbred racing industry and the need for aftercare programs, Rood & Riddle established the RR Thoroughbred Sport Horse Awards, given annually to the top Thoroughbreds competing in dressage, eventing, hunter and jumper classes at US Equestrian Federation shows. In addition, the practice presents the Rood & Riddle Comeback Award to the equine athlete who conquers a major health complication and ultimately returns to elite competition after receiving care by the Rood & Riddle staff.   Veterinary medicine is a family tradition in the Riddle family. Riddle is the son of a veterinarian and several of his children have connections to the field. Riddle is originally from Greenville, South Carolina, and attended veterinary school at the University of Georgia. He relocated to Kentucky after graduation to intern with Dr. Dan Witherspoon at Spendthrift Farm.   Riddle has been the president of the Kentucky Association of Equine Practitioners, the Society for Theriogenology and The Theriogenology Foundation. He was awarded the Steiner Award for Excellence in the Practice of Theriogenology and is an honorary member of the American College of Theriogenologists. He currently has a busy breeding practice in central Kentucky and is the director of public relations for Rood & Riddle.   In this episode, Elise and Dr. Riddle discuss his experience as the first veterinarian to discover Mare Reproductive Loss Syndrome (MRLS), which ultimately cost the industry over $100 million and put him in an unexpected international media spotlight, but also lay the groundwork for an unprecedented collaboration between veterinarians around the globe. Dr. Riddle also shares his perspective on Rood & Riddle’s evolution from its early days to its recognition as The Mayo Clinic for Horses; offers advice to current and aspiring veterinarians; and discusses his perspective on the future of veterinary medicine and science in the next 20–30 years. Elise and Dr. Riddle also talk about his typical day, the types of cases seen in their reproductive practice (the LeBlanc Reproductive Center), and recounts some of his best memories delivering amazing news to horse owners.   Tune in to hear it all!   Topics of Discussion: [:25] About today’s guest. [1:05] When Dr. Tom Riddle thinks back to the very beginning of Rood & Riddle, what experiences stand out to him most?

[25:14] As a veterinarian, working with the world’s finest practitioners and staff, how important is collaboration, excellent communication, and rapport? [28:45] Dr. Riddle’s predictions for veterinary medicine breakthroughs over the next 20–30 years. [34:20] At the heart of Rood & Riddle’s reproductive practice is the LeBlanc Reproductive Center.

[39:10] A typical day for Dr. Riddle and the aspects of being a practicing vet that mean the most to him. [40:45] The milestones for mares that reproductive specialists look for, measure, and manage.

Elise's guest on this episode is Mollie Bailey, senior reporter at The Chronicle of the Horse, and the author of “#MeToo: The Story of A Trainer, A Trophy and An All-Too-Common Betrayal.” The article, which ran one year ago, continues to rattle the horse industry as abuse survivors from across the country share their stories. Mollie’s investigative reporting connected the #MeToo movement in the broader community to the world of equestrian sport. Through her tactful interviews and powerful writing, Mollie helped to give voice to women who for decades had held their stories close to their hearts. She kept the needs and stories of the women at the forefront while maintaining the highest standards of journalistic integrity. For 28 years, the US Equestrian Federation presented a silver cowboy hat called the Jimmy A. Williams Trophy to the winner of its lifetime achievement award. Williams, who died in 1993, was a prominent horseman based at the Flintridge Riding Club in Southern California. But in 2017, the organization quietly removed Williams’ name from the trophy. Mollie heard rumors connecting Williams to possible sexual misconduct, and she began to investigate. Williams worked with as many as 37 future top professional riders during his career. Among these riders were U.S. Olympian Anne Kursinksi and US Equestrian Federation chef d’ équipe DiAnn Langer, both of whom accused Williams of inappropriate sexual behavior and agreed to tell their stories to Mollie. Mollie’s article received widespread acclaim both in and out of the equine industry. It inspired stories and was referenced in both The New York Times and the online newsletter Deadspin. “#MeToo: The Story of A Trainer, A Trophy and An All-Too-Common Betrayal” prompted countless other women to come forward to share their own stories of sexual assault and misconduct. It helped to initiate necessary dialogue around a difficult subject that for too long has remained hidden within the industry.

The United States Equestrian Federation broke ground at the Kentucky Horse Park Friday for a brand new headquarters. WUKY's Samantha Lederman was on hand and filed this report.
