Wellington, United States – November 14, 2025 – Following a strong start to the week, Friday’s competition at ESP Pre-Charity delivered another full day of top sport in both the hunter rings and the international arena. Fifty-seven horse-and-rider pairs stepped into the International Arena for the $62,500 Arthramid Grand Prix Qualifier CSI 3* on Friday at Wellington International.

Course designer Hector Loyola presented a thoughtful, competitive track. Twelve riders earned their way into the shortened course, and the jump-off quickly turned into a showcase of precision riding. Leading the charge was Kristen Vanderveen (USA), who guided Bull Run’s Jireh, owned by Bull Run Jumpers Inc., to a winning time of 52.31 seconds.

Close behind, Chloe Reid (USA) navigated Crossover 4, owned by Team Reid, to a clear and efficient round of 52.80 seconds for second.

Rounding out the podium was Alexandra Worthington (USA) aboard De L’oiseliere, owned by Turn A Blind Eye, stopping the timers at 53.10 seconds. With just tenths of a second separating the top three, the qualifier delivered one of the most competitive finishes of the day.
