We can't turn back time to get to relive this year's Longines Hampton Classic Grand Prix all over again, but we can at least turn our clocks back an hour tonight! ⌚️
Thank you to #Longines for always keeping us on the right track! #EleganceIsAnAttitude
Even in the off-season, the careful maintenance of our hunter rings doesn’t stop! 🍀🌿
Winning the Hampton Classic Grand Prix is an impressive feat for any horse. Winning it twice is extraordinary, and with Daniel Bluman, Ladriano Z did just that! It has always been a privilege to watch Ladriano, and now, we congratulate him on a great career and wish him the happiest retirement!! 💙
Last year marked Rene Dittmer’s first time making the trip from Europe to the Hampton Classic, and now he’s so glad that he did! Watch to hear more from Rene following his win in the $400,000 Longines Hampton Classic Grand Prix aboard Corsica X!
This year's champion bags (awarded to all championship winners) have been a huge hit, and it's all thanks to Vanner House!

The $50,000 Kristen Baran Hunt Team Stake made a fantastic debut today, with the inaugural win going to the team of Brianne Goutal-Marteau on Grand Remo, Stella Propp on Checkland and Clara Propp on Arezzo!! 👏🏼🏆
Each team consisted of two non-pros and one professional, all jumping individually over the same course before scores were averaged to determine a winner. Congratulations to all who participated!
