Minnesota equestrian set to compete in Olympics
A number of Minnesota athletes are in China -- or headed there soon -- to compete in the 2008 Olympic games.
The equestrian events begin on Saturday in Hong Kong, held outside of the Chinese mainland because of quarantine restrictions.
Becky Holder, of Mendota Heights, will be competing in three day eventing with her big gray horse Courageous Comet.
MPR's Cathy Wurzer talked with Holder about the competition and her horse.
