CLARE’s David Blake came out on top to win the $30,000 Noble Outfitters Grand Prix at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Centre earlier this week with Binkie, owned by his employers at Pine Hollow Farm, to earn their first Grand Prix win of 2016.

They took the top honours in Monday’s jump-off, double clear in 40.653 seconds chased by California’s Andrew Ramsay and Winn Winn who collected second place, crossing through the timers just four-hundredths off the winning pace in a time of 40.699. Wellington’s Benjamin Meredith and Anabelle 28 earned third place finishing in 42.273.
