The Horse Review's Most Influential Equestrians in the US Recognition Program is designed to honor equestrian athletes, professionals, advocates, and educators who are enhancing our equestrian community, sport and industry. These individuals are role models to others in the sport and are advocates for the health, safety, and evolution of the equestrian industry and its horses.

- They act with intentional behaviors. They work, train, compete, advocate, and walk through life with a dedicated purpose and put actions behind that purpose. They are direct and make their intentions known with clear objectives and goals.
- They speak thoughtfully and they listen. Influential people do not gossip or engage in unfound attacks on others. They seek to rise above and create clear and effective communication.
- They take action. They are not afraid to take risks or make decisions. They do not allow themselves to be stuck or paralyzed.

- They focus on what really matters. They do not let themselves fall victim to trivial matters or competitions. They are not in the sport to win every competition. They are in the sport to grow and develop and help others feel a part of something bigger and larger than themselves.
