Toronto, Ontario – Ian Millar celebrated his third victory of the Royal Horse Show by winning the $100,000 CN World Cup Grand Prix on Wednesday, November 7, at The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto, ON.

The eight-time Olympian posted the first clear round of the night over the tough track set by course designer Michel Vaillancourt. Millar joined four others in the jump-off while two riders, American Richard Spooner and Millar’s daughter, Amy, failed to advance when they incurred one time fault for exceeding the 69-second time allowed.

As the first to return for the jump-off, Millar set a blistering pace of 40.63 seconds, taking a daring inside turn to fence number nine. Four more riders followed, but none were able to catch Millar, who had also scored back-to-back victories on Saturday by winning the $100,000 Canadian Show Jumping Championship presented by Greenhawk followed by the $70,000 Kubota Cup Grand Prix.
