Orangeville’s Kim Farlinger and Sher-Al Farm’s Stanley Stone rode to the red ribbon and top prize in the $25,000 Grand Prix at Caledon Equestrian Park’s annual Summer Festival (Aug. 1-5).

arlinger and Stanley Stone, who are no strangers to the Grand Prix ring at Caledon Equestrian Park (CEP), bested a starting field of 19 competitors for the win.


The victory on Saturday (Aug. 4) was the pair’s first Grand Prix triumph of the 2018 season at CEP, after lighting the ring on fire with three Grand Prix wins at the park in 2017.


Hyde Moffat and Ariel Grange’s Grafton came in just behind Farlinger and Stanley Stone, a 12-year-old Warmblood Gelding, for second place and the blue ribbon. Sam Pegg and Cayden de Coilly were third.


Neil Badcock and his mount Didgeeridoo, who placed fourth in Saturday’s Grand Prix, were the big winners in Thursday’s (Aug. 2) Open Welcome — presented by McKee-Pownall Equine Services. Badcock and Didgeeridoo held off Captain Canada, Ian Millar, riding Ariel Grange’s Dixson for the win. Moffat and Grafton placed third in that class.
