Second place went to Adrienne Sternlicht (USA) and Pembroke, owned by Starlight Farms LLC, who recorded a time of 68.24 seconds. Enrique Gonzalez (MEX) and Chacna finished third in 68.35 seconds.
“He’s a super competitive horse,” said Foster of the 12-year-old KWPN gelding by Contendro II x Quick Star. “He’s really fast on his own. He covers the ground very fast and spends very minimal time in the air. So if I can get a good track, I know I can get within a winning time with him.

“All of those long lines were heading toward the left, and he has a really big stride to the left and a big left drift,” she said of the course. “If I let him head left, and I let him go fast, I can usually cover the distance pretty well. Sometimes you have those days where everything just sort of shows up really well, and you end up not having to pull on the reins. If you have one of those rounds with Brighton, you usually win.”

Foster described Brighton as “very self-confident” and a horse that has been the same from the start of their relationship five years ago.
“I think the more that I can let him think he’s the king, the better it is,” said Foster. “He’s won more classes for me than I think any horse I’ve ever had. He’s probably one of the most consistent horses that I’ve ever ridden. He’s just been an incredible horse.”
