Williamsburg: Charlotte Jacobs defeats Farrington

Par Anastasia ·

At the CSI 4* in Williamsburg, Charlotte Jacobs won the Grand Prix ahead of world number one Kent Farrington, monopolizing the American podium.

Charlotte Jacobs secured another major victory by winning the Williamsburg 4* Grand Prix. Riding Korbach van de Renger, the American rider distinguished herself from the competition with a double clear round, ideally timed at 35.5 seconds, confirming her excellent form after a similar success in Devon four weeks ago.

Kent Farrington, the world number one, could only follow suit with Greya. The excellent pair, who had shone in April at the World Cup Final in Fort Worth, finished second despite a clear round.

Ireland's Shane Sweetnam completed the podium with Pegina van den Bisschop, who had only one fault. This competition, contested by twenty-three horse-and-rider combinations and featuring obstacles set at 1.55 meters, counts towards the world rankings and highlights the current American dominance in the international show jumping circuit. Today's performances confirm the high level of the transatlantic horse force.
