In keeping with more than 30 years of tradition, the Palm Beach Derby awards high scores for all the major sport horse breeds for dressage. Since 2008, USPRE and Janne Rumbough have sponsored the High Point Palm Beach Derby Award for the highest scoring PRE in the International and National Divisions at this annual event.

This year’s winners were:

  • International Division: Kerrigan Gluch and Vaquero HGF   68.202 Young Riders Individual Test
  • National Division: David Marcus and Churro   70.758  Third Level, Test 1.
