Following two days of division competition, two Thoroughbred Jumper Champions were crowned Friday afternoon at the 2025 Devon Fall Classic! Riders Temperance Fetterolf and Michelle Korcz were locked in a tight points race, each vying for the top spot. In the end, they finished in a tie and shared the coveted tricolor ribbon, showcasing exceptional skill and horsemanship in a highly competitive field.
On her way to becoming Champion, Temperance Fetterolf, aboard Lauren Hyde’s bay gelding Full Time Party, raced to a no-fault, blue-ribbon finish in the first $500 Thoroughbred Jumper 1.00–1.05m class of the division.
On Friday, it was Michelle Korcz’s turn to shine, claiming first place in the second round of the division. She stopped the clock at 55.441 seconds aboard Neal Shapiro’s chestnut gelding Will Scarlett.
Rounding out the Thoroughbred Jumpers was Andrew Ross, a longtime competitor at both The Devon Horse Show and The Devon Fall Classic. He returned this year with his trusted partner, Electra. The 1998 Thoroughbred mare delivered the fastest round of the field to capture the blue ribbon in the $1,000 Thoroughbred Jumper Stake 1.00–1.05m.
In the end, it was Fetterolf and Korcz who shared the spotlight—and the Championship title—in a memorable finish to the Thoroughbred Jumper division.
