Mark Bluman checked an item off of his horse show bucket list, claiming his first-ever victory in the Dixon Oval at Devon. Riding his long-time partner Ubiluc, owned by Over The Top Stables, the duo sped to victory with a jump-off time of 34.2 seconds.

“In all honesty, the plan was not to jump him today,” said Bluman. “After Thursday, I told him before the Grand Prix, I said, if you’re top three, you don’t jump on Saturday. We were ninth, so we took a shot. We always come here to this horse show. My horse is unbelievable. He’s been great over the last few years. He’s made my dreams come true. Winning here in the Dixon Oval was one of them.”
