Another week, another win for Kent Farrington. The world no. 1 continued his remarkable 2025 streak by claiming top honors in the $125,000 Silo Ridge Masters CSI3* Grand Prix aboard Orafina, closing out the opening week of the Highlands Horse Show in New York’s Hudson Valley.
A Demanding Course
Course designer Nick Granat (USA) set a track that demanded precision and power, allowing only three riders to advance to the jump-off. Heather Caristo-Williams (USA) and Marciano MVF, owned by Stephanie Bulger, were first to return, followed by Farrington and Zidan 10, owned by Samuel Hutton (GBR).
A Masterclass in Efficiency
In classic Farrington fashion, the U.S. rider delivered a flawless jump-off, blazing through the shortened course in 45.91 seconds to secure the win. The victory marked Orafina’s sixth FEI win of the year. Hutton settled for second after a rail and a time fault, while Caristo-Williams completed the podium in third.
