Lexington, KY - May 20, 2007 - It was an interesting afternoon at the Kentucky Spring Classic Horse Show. The $50,000 Mary Rena Murphy Grand Prix, CSI 3* had a jump-off between seven riders, none of which were
clear in the first round. After the class failed to have a clear trip, the riders with four faults returned for a jump-off. The fastest of the
group was Kent Farrington on Up Chiqui. They beat out Federico Sztyrle and Fatalis Fatum for victory. Margie Engle and her veteran partner, Hidden Creek´s Perin, finished third.

The first to return in the tie breaker was Hidden Creek´s Perin and Margie Engle. In the jump-off, they added a clear round to the total and finished in a time of 40.85.Next up was Farrington with Up Chiqui. In the jump-off, Up Chiqui sprinted through the remainder of the course and
stopped the timers in a blazing time of 36.99. Katie Prudent and Zoie LLC´s Sassicaia finished the jump-off with four faults in a time of 41.78. Canada´s Tonya Henning made a good bid with her horse Mill Creek Sparky and had a clear
round in 41.23 seconds. The next rider was Carlos Boy and Ken Berkley caught the final rail for four faults in 38.37 seconds. As the fastest four-faulter in the first round, Federico Sztyrle of Argentina and his mount, Fatalis Fatum, had a good chance to catch Farrington. They finished a second and a half off the winning time with a clear round in 38.55 seconds. The final horse in the ring was Tarco, ridden by Candice King.In the jump-off they would not be clear when the rail fell at fence 5b and they stopped the timers in 42.71 seconds. Farrington´s second grand prix win of the week was sealed.
"Lucky for me, there were no clears," Farrington said with a smile. "I thought there might be a possibility for me in a jump-off. I was thinking
after the first round that he went pretty fast, and I was hoping to be the fastest four-faulter and maybe be in the top five." This was Up Chiqui´s second grand prix win this week. Farrington is very
happy to have such a strong mount. "He´s been amazing. He´s been on a roll, and it´s really been fantastic for me to have a horse to get in
there and go do it. He keeps trying. I think he´s great."
