Erynn Ballard (CAN) & Fave d’Authuit

Ballard is a familiar face on MLSJ teams but joined the Roadrunners this year from 2023 season title holders Helios. She understands the pressure that comes with defending a top spot in the standings.

“There’s always pressure going into the final,” she said. “We have good momentum, but I think we also have good horses and riders, and that’s what it comes down to. We’re starting to understand the strategy to win; if you watch the evolution of the class, the first year everybody would go in and run. It’s about jumping clear rounds. I think the second round is the one that is the most pressure because that secures your gold or silver placing.

“It’s not a class for second horses anymore,” continued Ballard. “It’s a class for specific horses because the reward is big.”

Rounding out the podium for bronze was Team KPF after Sameh El Dahan (GBR) on WKD Toronto won their medal match against Eye Candy’s Gabriela Reutter (CHI) riding Castle OJ.

“We are trying to hang on to number one; that’s the main goal is to have no major mistakes and try to ride it out to the end and win the whole thing,” concluded Campbell of the Roadrunners’ victory. “I’s a lot closer this year than it has been in previous season, so it’s really going to come down to that final class, which is going to be exciting.”
