Tosh, Lonestar Victorious in International Hunter Derby Finals |
Hunt Tosh and Lonestar.
Photo by Shawn McMillen. | Lexington, KY - Hunt Tosh waited in anticipation after his final round. He'd dominated the first round and after a powerful second round he thought there was a chance the night could be his, but it wasn't until the scores went up that he knew he'd become the winner of the second annual 2010 $100,000 The Chronicle of the Horse/USHJA International Hunter Derby Finals.
It was August 21, the night everyone had been anxiously waiting for, and there were only two more rounds to go before Tosh's victory was secured. Being held in the lovely venue of the indoor arena at the Kentucky Horse Park only added to thrill and to add a touch of class and tradition, black tie dress was asked.
