The final phase at The Event at Rebecca Farm proved to be a test for many riders, but in the Adequan USEA Gold Cup CIC3* it did not change the overnight standings one bit. After the final horse crossed the finish line of Richard Jeffery’s show jumping course it was Kristi Nunnink who came out on top with her 11-year-old Holsteiner mare R-Star (Riverman x Marisol).

“It has just been kind of magical actually,” said Kristi. “She has been really good in all three phases – I couldn’t be happier. It’s been great and my little Prelim horse won also, so it has been an awesome weekend.”
