Cabachon Wins Pro 3’ Finals - Manolo Wins Pro 3' Restricted Finals

Mojito Wins Pre Green Incentive

Lexington, KY - “I am so excited for the owner Stephen Martines because he is so supportive,” said Tammy Provost after she rode Cabachon to win both the Pro 3’ Hunter Go Round (May 10) and Finals (May 11). Tammy was competing at the 2007 edition of the Legacy Cup. The winner of the Restricted Pro 3’ Hunter Finals was Manolo ridden by Kristi Cardalico and owned by Barri Platt. Pulitzer, ridden by Chrystal Knight and owned by Jack Schock won the Go Round. The Pre Green Incentive was won by Mojito with Rob Bielefeld riding. The Legacy Cup is part of the Kentucky Spring Horse Shows taking place in Lexington, KY, through May 19.

The Legacy Cup is designed to give Hunter riders much more than other classes and divisions they compete in. The focus is on money, presentation and fun. In addition to the prize money garnered through the entry fees, sponsors play a significant role. A special thank you to the sponsors of the Pro 3’ division, which is open to any horse not competing in the Pro 3’6” division and ridden by a professional.

These include Boggs Hill/Mr. & Mrs. Tim Goguen for $2,500 Added Money to the Pro 3’ Finals, Mr. & Mrs. John Ingram for the Restricted Pro 3’ Finals, Janet Read for the $10,000 Pre Green Incentive, going to the top eight horses in either their first or second year of showing, who have never shown over 3’6”. Ashland Farms/Ken & Emily Smith sponsored the Pro 3’ Go Round and H ‘n D Stables/Bruce Duchossois sponsored the Restricted Pro 3’ Go Round. Gifts to the horses and riders were thanks to Personalized Products, Essex Classics and Malvern Saddlery.
