Championship season is starting to take shape.

On this week's U.S. Equestrian Open Podcast, Annie Bishop and Diarmuid Byrne look ahead to a huge week at CHIO Aachen, as the U.S. jumping squad heads to one of the sport's biggest stages and the road to Aachen in August starts to come into focus.

There's also reaction to the newly announced U.S. dressage long list, before Annie sits down with one of the most talked-about young riders in U.S. eventing, Isabelle Bosley.

Fresh off an impressive Kentucky performance with Conner, Isabelle reflects on producing him from an unstarted five-year-old to four-star level, learning to trust the process, and why the bigger the atmosphere gets, the better he becomes.
