The Seven and Eight-Year-Old Division was dominated by owner and breeder, KingRidge Stables of King, ON. Rider Hugh Graham claimed victory by winning the jump-off with Fifth Estate 3E, a Canadian Sport Horse gelding by Class Action out of Alley Cat by Emilion.

Hot on Graham’s heels was fellow KingRidge stable jockey Roberto Teran, who finished in second place with Grand Slam 3E, a Canadian Sport Horse gelding by Jamestown out of Celeste by Challenger, also bred and owned by KingRidge Stables. Teran rode Grand Slam 3E to a clear ride in the jump-off but wasn’t quick enough to catch the quick pace set by Graham.
