Off The Record Goes Into The Record Books

After the first phase of the Cosequin Lexington CCI4*-S, Will Coleman and Off The Record have not only delivered the horse's best dressage test of his entire international career, but he’s sitting at the top of the leader board heading into what promises to be a thrilling cross-country day. The pair’s 21.8 isn’t just personal-best territory—it’s a new Kentucky CCI4-S dressage record.
And they’ve earned every bit of that top spot.
Off The Record's Moment
For Off The Record, this moment feels earned. Bred in Cavan, Ireland by Peter Brady and produced by Will Coleman, he’s become one of the most consistent and classy campaigners on the international stage. A former Aachen champion, and now—on his 39th international start—he’s topped his previous best of 21.9 from Great Meadow and leads one of the deepest 4*-S fields on American soil.
He’s done this in big arenas before, but delivering a record-setting test at Kentucky, in front of home fans, with pressure and expectation all around? That’s next-level.

Will Coleman’s 21.8 with Off The Record at Kentucky 2025 now ranks among his all-time best dressage scores across all international levels. It’s his top mark on Off The Record and one of the best CCI4*-S scores of his career—joining elite company alongside multiple winning tests with Chin Tonic HS. Kentucky just became another standout chapter in an already world-class resume.
