Summer Justus and her own La Belle SCF (Diktator Van De Boslandhoeve x Belle Bleu S) wrapped up the 2025 Midwest Indoors Series at World Equestrian Center – Wilmington (WEC) in top form, capturing the final $30,000 Relyne by Hagyard Grand Prix. Course designer Joe Carnicom set a demanding track that produced just four jump-off contenders, with Justus leading the way as the first to return.
A Commanding Jump-Off Performance
She delivered a decisive, forward ride in the short course, stopping the clock in 38.384 seconds and setting a target none could match. Her time held by a margin of nearly two seconds.
Ross and Allan Round Out the Podium
Fresh off a Welcome Stake win earlier in the week, Andrew Ross piloted his 12-year-old Belgian Warmblood gelding Cornet’s Cobalt (Cornet’s Prinz x India D) to second place in 40.212 seconds.
Lorraine Allan secured third aboard her 15-year-old Westphalian mare Somethin’ Else (Stairway x Cartella) with a steady finish in 44.755 seconds.
A Strong Finish to the Series
Justus’s win marked a strong conclusion to the series, showcasing the continued consistency and scope of La Belle SCF against a competitive field.
