The opening week at the Ocala Spring Classic welcomed Chapman S, owned and ridden by Stacy Reser of Ocala, Florida to the winner’s circle in the $2,500 Marshall & Sterling Classic Hunter Derby, including Non-Pro Rider Bonus.

According to Reser, Chapman S was recently imported. "This was actually his first ever horse show in the USA and the first-time jumping hunter jumps outside of our farm. To say I am proud of him would be an understatement," she said.

Reser continued, "I had a feeling he was going to be good, but it was such a treat to win the Marshall & Sterling Classic Hunter Derby. He ended up finishing reserve champion in the Greens with top ribbons too. He's so incredibly honest and brave and gives you such a great feeling over the jumps. I am very excited to see his potential over the bigger fences. I see International Derbies in his future, and I hope to get a chance to campaign him further. But if he keeps going like this, he might become another lucky rider's Derby horse!" she added.
