Kymberly Pullen watched her barn mates rake in titles over the weekend at the 2025 US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®, but she had to wait until Sunday afternoon to claim one of her own. She presided over the Fourth Level Freestyle Open Championship riding Mojito to 72.35%. In yet another tight race, reserve Brianna Zwilling finished just 0.117 percentage points adrift. It was not entirely smooth sailing for Pullen; she realized turning onto the final centerline that she had not performed a pirouette to the left.

“I had to add it to the floorplan last minute,” she explained, before admitting that something similar happened earlier this year. “But everyone in my barn team has won something, so this is really exciting. I’ve had this horse since he was three, and I love him.”

Pullen works for Lauren Chumley in Pittstown, New Jersey, and used music made by Kristin Wasemiller- Knutson, the 2025 Open Grand Prix Freestyle champion. She has owned Mojito (by Grand Galaxy Win x Rhodiamant) since he was three after spotting him on a video and falling for him.

“He’s a hot, spicy horse so we use chilled, relaxing music,” added Pullen, who will be heading to Florida for the winter next month. “I have to pre-ride him in the mornings, and we have lots of calming rituals. My goal is that he’ll be a CDI grand prix horse.”

All in the Family

Another of Chumley’s students, Mila Perry, also boosted the barn family’s tally. Perry’s lovely four-year-old Jabberwocky Eden punched out another top test to land the Training Level AA Championship with 73.933%, the second title for the leggy mare by Jameson RS2 x Asgard’s Ibiza.

Christina Morin-Graham was completely unbeatable in her three championship tests on her Jazz mare Ici De La Vigne. On Sunday, the 12-year-old scooped her third title of the show by taking the Prix St. Georges AA Championship — the sixth blue sash for her rider. Their score of 70.098% was the only one to break the 70% barrier in the class.
