The $25,300 Future Hunter World Championship was the first Championship class held indoors on Wednesday. Sandy Ferrell and Showman, who were crowned Grand Future Hunter Champions, carried away the World Championship with two scores of 90.2. Showman is owned by Alexa and Krista Weisman. They also collected the EMO Trip of Show for the Futures, with a high score of 91.
John Ingram of Nashville, TN, rode his horse Hush to victory in the World Champion Hunter Under Saddle Senior class. Hush is no stranger to the winner’s circle in this class, and he floated across the ground to win the blue ribbon.
In the evening session, the up-and-coming riders in the hunter/jumper industry showed their stuff in the $5,000 Emerging Professional Rider Challenge. In the one-round class, it was all or nothing with one score determining the winner. Nineteen-year-old Katherine Newman rode a precise, smooth round on Daydream, owned by Mimi Abel-Smith, to score an 87.66 from the judges for the win.
Newman is riding in her first year as a professional for her parents Gerry and Kathy Newman, and their farm, Allwyn Court. She showed Daydream for five years, since his Pre-Green year. Newman was excited to do the Emerging Professional Challenge. She remarked, “I think it’s a really cool opportunity to do a special class.” She noted that the course “had a really good flow to it.”
