AMERICA’s Kent Farrington scooped the third Grand Prix of the 2021 Winter Equestrian Festival, the $137,000 NetJets Grand Prix, in Wellington, Florida, last Sunday following victory in the WEF Challenge Cup three days earlier.

A total of 45 combinations challenged the track with 12 qualifying to return for the jump-off. Among the clear rounds was Co Meath’s Cian O’Connor and the nine-year-old Cardento-sired Irish Sport Horse gelding Kilkenny (formally known as MHS Fernhill), bred in Co Kilkenny by the late Ita Brennan. They were one of just four clears against the clock in a time of 43.95 seconds to earn $13,700.
