Making the victory twice as nice, today's classic was held concurrently with the $2,500 Blenheim EquiSports U25 Jumper Classic. Twenty-four year old Casady was crowned the winner of both events.

Course designer Peter Holmes of Canada built an inviting 1.45m track on The Oaks International Grand Prix Field, consisting of sixteen jumping efforts, including two combinations. The class of twenty-seven entries saw nine go clear and advance to the jump-off.

The first to jump clean in the second round was Nicole Haunert and Jamaico Drum van de Breepoel, setting the pace with a time of 46.988. Two rides later, Vani Khosla aboard Billy Mexico laid down a fault-free trip in 40.406. Riding second to last in the jump-off, Casady and Cicomein VDL bested the rest with a clean round in just 39.624 seconds.

This is the second of thirteen qualifying events in the Markel Insurance 1.45m Jumper Series to be held throughout the Blenheim EquiSports 2019 Horse Show Season, with the Final to be held during The Las Vegas National, November 12 – 17, 2019.

Of the five U25 entries that competed in the Blenheim U25 Jumper Classic, only Casady and Cicomein VDL jumped clear in the first round. Finishing second was Mckenna Norris aboard Cristall Colorado followed by Claire Follmer on Bella Sofiawith four and eight faults respectively.

This Classic is one of six offered this season, providing U25 riders an opportunity to compete over grand prix level courses at a reduced entry fee. The $20,000 Blenheim EquiSports U25 Final will be held during the Blenheim Fall Tournament in September.
