Wellington, Florida โ May 10, 2026 โ The 2026 Wellington International Spring Series, presented by Florida Coast Equipment, ended with a victory for young professional and Wellington native Tanner Korotkin (USA) in the $24,999 IDA Development Regional Grand Prix riding Etonemoi del Cabalero for owner Lanes End Showjumping.
Korotkin, 24, took the win by nearly two full seconds over courses designed by Hector Loyola (PUR) on the grass derby field. His partnership with Etonemoi Del Cabalero, a 12-year-old Selle Franรงais mare (Air Joradan Z x Le Tot de Semilly) known as โTony,โ was formed only two months ago and is off to a winning start. Korotkin took over the ride from fellow American Daisy Farish, who won a three-star grand prix with Tony last summer.

โI love these super hot horses, and she loves to win,โ said Korotkin of Tonyโs characteristic attitude and speed. โShe’s as fast as it gets. The only thing you’re thinking about on course is holding her back, and she does the rest. Daisy had a lot of success with her, and my goal is to try to replicate that.โ

Korotkin and Tony stopped the clock at 36.422 seconds ahead of Grazina Comme Il Faut, ridden by Ali Wolff (USA) of New Albany, Ohio, and owned by Alina Zappone. Their time was 38.160 seconds. Finishing third was Irelandโs Cormac Hanley aboard Santiago vh Netehof, owned by Heathman Farm, in 38.340 seconds.

Korotkin was busy with four horses in the IDA Development Grand Prix as he prepares for an international tour this summer.
โI wanted to set them up nicelyโwe did very well in the ranking classes here two weeks ago, and I wanted one more show before we head over for some FEI events, and it worked out,โ he said. โAfter the combination, I loosened the reins a bit and let her go. Sheโs pretty much uncatchable.โ

The Spring Series spans five weeks, featuring hunter, jumper and equitation competition at Wellington International, home of the famed Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF). Learn more about the Spring Series HERE.
