With some of the best West Coast hunter professional riders competing during June in San Juan Capistrano, and after having earned a tri-color in the First Year Green Hunters on Lindsay Maxwell's Technicolor at Devon this year, Nick Haness earned the Romfh Leading Professional Hunter Rider Award.
Two weeks of victories in the professional hunter sections during Blenheim June Classic II & III on Maxwell's Technicolor, Ecole Lathrop's Banderas, Laura Wasserman's Boss, Kailin Kerzner's Zotikiss, and West Coast Equine Partner's Spot On secured the win for Haness with a total of 346.5 points.
After the June Series event points were tallied, Lindsay Maxwell emerged victorious as the Romfh Leading Amateur Owner Hunter Rider.

Also fresh from Devon with big wins in the pony division, Augusta Iwasaki claimed not only one, but two, Romfh Leading Hunter Rider titles. Collecting top ribbons during the Blenheim June Series on Mackenzie Root's Captain America, Littlewood LLC's California Dreamin' II, Lorelei Farm's Small Illustration, and John French's Goodness Gracious, Iwasaki led the pony standings from beginning to end.
Iwasaki also piloted Lyn Pederson's Small Affair, Dogwood Hill LLC's Illusion, and Makoto Farm's Small Gesture to multiple Younger Junior Hunter Championship and Classic wins, resulting in the Romfh Leading Junior Hunter Rider title by three points over runner-up Lexie Looker.
