    Triple crown is not a racing competition, it's a racing accomplishment. The triple crown is winning all three Kentucky Derby, Preakness, and Belmont.

    Anyway, big shows. There aren't many specifically dressage shows out there. There's Devon, which has basically everything. Devon is the largest show in the nation. If you compete in Devon, then you know that you have a chance at making it in this industry.

    It sounds like you need to familiarize yourself with the horse show world. You're into dressage so here are some sites you can check out:

    Also check out FEI a lot and familiarize yourself with the big time riders and learn some of their techniques. Get a good trainer and they can help you out with your dressage dreams because they will know the circuit much better than most of us will.
