History was made under these lights!

The FIRST EVER Seahorse Showdown $10,000 GAMBLERS CHOICE at Fox Lea Farm brought pure excitement and has been talked about around the farm all day! 31 riders strategized their way through a course set at 1.0- 1.10m with a chance to take on the 1.15m joker! Each jump was worth different points, and riders had just 60 seconds to rack up their scores. Add in costumes, and you have a recipe for unforgettable fun—this is one we’ll celebrate year after year!
