East Dorset, VT—July 31, 2002— Sandy Van Dyke bested the field to win Wednesday’s $2,500 Open Jumper Class at the Manchester and the Mountains Horse Show, part of the 2002 Vermont Summer Festival held at Harold Beebe Farm in East Dorset, VT.

Three riders mastered the course set by American course designer, Buddy Brown, to advance to the jump-off. Riding Roulette Rouge, owned by Perrin Berkey, Van Dyke of Lake Worth, FL, was the only rider to post a second fault-free performance to win the competition.

Kristi Smith of Rockport, MA, took both fourth and fifth positions with Jennieta and On The Sly respectively after having four faults in the first round.
