Lisa Lockhart found the winners circle in Round 3 after stopping the clock at 17.09 seconds. It was an impressive showing from Lockhart and her horse Rosas.

“Rosas is very fast, she’s extremely fast. She is just very reactive to everything, and so timing is impeccable, so it’s very hard as a rider sometimes to have that timing and to time everything perfectly,” she said. “I think that’s the most difficult part, but she loves her job and can run so fast. It’s an absolute blast.”

The battle at the top of the World Standings continues between Hailey Kinsel and Brittany Pozzi Tonozzi. Kinsel failed to cash a check for the first time in Round 3 while Pozzi Tonozzi placed second with a time of 17.21 seconds.
