Inside Maryland: Crafting the Cross Country with Pierre and Tyson

With the Mars Maryland 5 Star at Fairhill just days away, Nicole brings listeners a first look at what's in store on cross country day.

New designer Pierre le Goupil, taking over from Ian Stark, joins master builder Tyson Rementer to reveal how this year's course has evolved, smoother flow, bold new fences, and a test designed to reward accuracy over sheer endurance. From arena combinations that could prove decisive to the craftsmanship behind each fence, this is your inside line on what riders will face at Fair Hill.

Highlights include:

How Pierre approached designing his first Maryland 5 Star
The evolution from Ian Stark's course and what's changed for 2025
Tyson on the build, the detail, and what makes this year's track stand out
The key questions, the optimum time, and how the conditions could shape the result

Guests:

Pierre le Goupil, Maryland 5 Star Course Designer
Tyson Rementer, Maryland 5 Star Course Builder
