Saturday at Thunderbird Show Park, things came in threes.

Georgia Knight (CAN) bested a three-horse jump-off to win a third consecutive U25 competition in the Thunderbird Arena, completing a clean sweep of the division at the April Season Opener. She left all the jumps up over Chris Jones’ 1.40m first round track with all three of her horses, ultimately taking a third win with her longtime partner, Ecolano vs Romano, affectionately known as “Romeo.”

No one was able to jump double-clear on the day, but Knight was fastest among the three four-fault performers in the jump-off. The winning time was 48.72 seconds. Jillz and Natalie Popham (CAN) finished second (4/49.29s), with Knight also third aboard Indy (51.9s).
