Keswick Hunt Club Show Features High Quality Hunting and Pony Classes
Keswick Hunt Club hosted its annual exhibition featuring top hunting and pony classes under ideal weather. Randolph Ortman's Blue Ridge Farm entries led hunter results with Westy winning the William J. Rucker trophy for middle and heavyweight hunters and Sarah B. taking the Borgert trophy as best ladies’ hunter. Henry L. Fonda earned five blue ribbons with Birdwood Knight winning the George trophy in ladies’ saddle and first in open saddle. Additional show mares, foals, yearlings, and two year old colts earned top placements across each category, with entries from Charlottesville, Keswick, Shadwell, and nearby breeders.
