Devon, Pennsylvania — May 27, 2026 — Wednesday evening’s international jumping competition at the 130th Devon Horse Show & Country Fair concluded with another thrilling FEI CSI 4* event, the $32,000 Main Line Challenge, where McKayla Langmeier (USA) and Rafferty Farm’s Pepita VD Rollebeek once again rose to the top of the leaderboard. The pair earned their second consecutive victory after also winning Tuesday evening’s Jet Run Devon Welcome Stake.

Thirty horse-and-rider combinations representing five countries entered the iconic Dixon Oval to take on a challenging two-phase course designed by Ireland’s Colm Quinn. The track featured 12 obstacles and 14 efforts, testing both precision and speed under the lights of Devon’s historic arena.

Fourteen entries successfully produced double-clear rounds, but it was Langmeier and Pepita VD Rollebeek who delivered the fastest fault-free performance of the evening, stopping the clock in 31.96 seconds to claim top honors.

“The first phase always makes me the most nervous,” Langmeier shared after her win. “It’s always disappointing if you have a rail in the first phase. I trusted the plan I walked and trusted my horse.”

The victory marks another standout result for the accomplished partnership and adds to Langmeier’s growing list of successes at Devon, a venue she says holds deep personal significance.

“This horse show has been running for so long, and it has such a great atmosphere,” said Langmeier. “Winning here brings me back to my whole family being here when I was a junior, from the ponies to the equitation. It’s really special to win here.”

The unique atmosphere of the Dixon Oval continues to set Devon apart from other venues. “You have the crowd right there, so there’s a ton of atmosphere,” Langmeier said. “Everyone dresses up, and it’s just a fun show to walk into the ring for.”

Langmeier also praised Pepita VD Rollebeek, describing the Belgian Warmblood mare as “a jack of all trades.”

“She’s done everything with me,” Langmeier explained. “Derbies, Grand Prix classes. She’s my third-ranking horse and a vital part of my team.”

With another major win secured ahead of Thursday’s Grand Prix competition, Langmeier will remain focused on the challenges ahead. “I’m just very proud of my horse and my team behind me for making this happen,” she said.
