#WINNINGROUND: Ireland’s Daniel Coyle raced to victory in the $150,000 Mad Barn Big Ben International Challenge riding Legacy, owned by Ariel Grange.
“Legacy now knows how to go very fast,” explained Coyle of his star mount, a 13-year-old Zangersheide mare (Chippendale Z x Bon Ami). “I knew it was a risk, but I believed she could do it. She’s an amazing horse, and I’m delighted to have her. It probably wasn’t the smoothest round I’ve ever had, but she’s such a fighter.”
