Jenny Karazissis and Undeniable Take the Blue in the South Shore Farm USHJA Hunter Derby Presented by Fleeceworks

Del Mar, CA - October 15, 2016 - Saturday night's Del Mar Welcome Prix concluded two nights of special classes at the Del Mar International Horse Show for Welcome Week. The course was designed by international course designer, Werner Deeg of Germany, and contained 13 obstacles with a total of 16 efforts.
The speed course challenged the riders and their horses with a bending line from a lofty oxer on the rail to a vertical - oxer combination, where many riders had the vertical down. The second challenge that tested the riders was an oxer - vertical combination on the rail to a bending line, followed by an inside turn to a vertical; a turn that you had to keep tidy if you wanted a shot in the top three placings.

Nayel Nassar and Baraka were second to go in the class after Kristin Hardin and Firestone S. Nassar and Baraka had an incredibly swift round, clear in a time of 66.49 to take the lead early from Hardin, who had a clean round, but a slower time of 70.96. Vhani Khosla and her own Billy Mexico went about half way through the class, knowing they had to put up an impressive time to take the lead from Nassar. Their fast pace and tight turns awarded them the lead with a clean round in a time of 66.04!

Eric Navet went a few rounds after Khosla on Signe Ostby's The Flying Ham. They certainly flew tonight, shutting out the competition with a clear round in an astounding time of 63.10, which would maintain the lead through the end of the exciting speed class, earning the blue ribbon.

Later that evening in the Del Mar Arena, Deeg set up the LA Saddlery 1.45M course. The class had 32 starters and allowed 14 into the jump off, with only four of those jumping double clear. Michelle Parker and Cross Creek Farms' Cupilor sped off with the win, with a double clear ride in a speedy time of 40.42 seconds! The always fast Kristin Hardin and Nicolette Hirt's Firestone S were on Parker's heels, but were not quick enough, finishing in second with a time of 42.35. Christian Heineking and NKH's NKH Calango rounded out the top three in a clear time of 43.27.
