Wellington, FL – April 12, 2011 – The Equestrian Sport Productions (ESP) Spring 4 Horse Show was a great success last week with many fun classes offered. Competing in the International Arena is a great opportunity, and riders from small ponies to grand prix jumpers were able to do that last week.

The horse show offered special events such as the Huntland Farm Pony Hunter Derby Style Classics under the lights on Saturday evening, the $1,500 Tackeria NAL Children’s/Adult Jumper Classic under the lights on Friday evening, the $10,000 Pennfield Feeds Open Jumper Welcome Stake, and the $25,000 ESP Grand Prix, a USEF Ranking List class, on Sunday.

Peter Lutz and Indiana 127

Peter Lutz and Davenport Inc.’s Indiana 127, a nine-year-old Dutch Warmblood gelding by Indoctro, were able to come home with the fastest time to win the $25,000 ESP Grand Prix out of 35 entries in the class. Their jump-off time of 31.423 seconds edged out Christine McCrea and Baloubet Junior Z, owned by Candy Tribble and Windsor Show Stables, who stopped the timers in 32.148 seconds. Lauren Hough took third and fourth places with Laura Mateo’s Casadora and her horse Spencer III. Both were double clear and just behind in 32.248 and 32.316 seconds. Blythe Marano and Urban, owned by Riverview Farm LLC, were fifth in 32.806 seconds.

On Friday night, it was the children’s and adult jumpers on center stage. Lindsey Tomeu and Mahogany, owned by Sweet Oak Farm, were the fastest in a jump-off of three competitors for the win in the $1,500 Tackeria NAL Children’s/Adult Jumper Classic.

Saturday night was a big night for pony riders as they competed in a derby-style hunter classic in the International Arena. Daisy Farish dominated the $1,000 Huntland Farm Small Pony Derby Classic. She rode Shine, owned by Lanes End, to first place with a two round total of 246 points. She and Elation owned by Dr. Betsee Parker, were second with 241 points.
