USEF Intermediaire I Dressage National Championship

Jojoba de Massa, a 2014 Portuguese Sport Horse stallion owned by Four Winds Farm and ridden by Sabine Schut-Kery (Thousand Oaks, CA), earned his second blue ribbon of the show after yesterday’s Prix St. Georges win. The pair posted a 71.412% for Tuesday’s I-I test to top the class. C. Cadeau, a 2016 Danish Warmblood gelding owned by the Elvis Syndicate LLC and ridden by Lauren Sprieser (Marshall, Va.) placed second in the class with a 70.353%. Vincent, a 2017 Oldenburg gelding shown by Elizabeth Bortuzzo (Frenchtown, N.J.), and owned by Bortuzzo and Mark Paul, were less than one-tenth of a point behind to secure third place with a 70.294%.

The Intermediaire I entries will have a day off tomorrow before concluding their competition with the FEI Intermediate Freestyle tests on Thursday, Aug. 21., beginning at 3:00 p.m. CT.
