Jacqueline Brooks and D Niro Enjoy a Comeback in Ottawa

Canadian Olympian Jacqueline Brooks won the Ottawa Dressage Festival CDI3* Grand Prix Freestyle aboard D Niro, marking the gelding’s first victory in two years. The duo scored 72.400%, beating out Alexandra Dvorak and Fling (67.875%) and Elizabeth Steacie with Callahan (67.650%).

Trussell also topped the Prix St. Georges with Carlucci (71.677%).

Christilot Boylen, who won the CDI Leading Athlete Award, took the top spots in the Intermediate 1 CDI1* and Intermediate 1 Freestyle CDI1* with Rocky Lane.
