horse Eduardo Braun And Blackforest Asdi Win $2,500 Brookledge Open Welcome

OCALA, FL (February 26, 2004)—Eduardo Braun and Blackforest ASDI, owned by Karl Giebmanns, emerged the victors in Wednesday's $2,500 Brookledge Open Welcome at HITS Ocala III. Bartko Magness and Lebora took second place. John Kersley rode Moritze to third place. Fourth place also went to Eduardo Braun riding his second mount Blackforest Commodore.

Michel Vaillancourt of Schomberg, Ontario, was the course designer for the class, which was held in the Grand Prix field. For Round One, Schomberg built a 10-jump course that included two double combinations. Time allowed was set at 78 seconds. There were 8 clear rounds over the course. The six-jump short course included a double and had time allowed set at 47 seconds.

Five riders posted clear rounds in the jump-off. Braun and Blackforest ASDI were last in the order and knew what they had to beat. Braun used his prime position to shave almost a second off the current leader's time. The pair coasted clear in a time of 35.14 seconds to win the competition.

Thursday's $25,000 HITS Grand Prix is the next Grand Prix event of the Ocala Winter Circuit. On Sunday, February 29th, spectators will have another chance to enjoy world-class show jumping competition as riders compete for top honors in the $50,000 HITS Grand Prix.

The Sunday Grand Prix will coincide with Family Day presented by Cox Communications. Kids and their parents will be invited to visit the show grounds to participate in a day filled with pony rides, face painting, clowns, and much more.
