Sabine Schut-Kery and Sanceo (SusanJStickle.com)

Wellington, Fla. - Friday morning, the FEI Prix St. Georges class sponsored by the Chesapeake Dressage Institute concluded, as it continued over two days due to the large number of entries. Sabine Schut-Kery (USA) topped the large class of 48 aboard 2006 Hanoverian stallion Sanceo, scoring a 71.184%. She was followed by Kasey Perry (USA) riding Goerklintgaards Dublet receiving a 70.947% and Tina Konyot (USA) taking third aboard Wyoming with a 70.921%.

Schut-Kery was thrilled that the pair finished atop the largest class this season at AGDF. "It feels amazing to come out on top in a competition like this. It makes it very exciting, but also helps to keep me focused and in my zone," she said. "I am always trying to find the words to fit how proud I am of him. I love the consistency he gives me and that is what I always strive for in the partnerships with my horses."

The environment, which gives riders many opportunities to expose their horses to new things, is an aspect of the competition that Schut-Kery finds very helpful with Sanceo, "The environment here is so grand and with so many quality riders it is truly a great experience," she continued. "I just want to make sure that I am not doing too much and finding that perfect balance."
