Devon, Pennsylvania – September 11, 2025 – Speed and precision stole the spotlight Friday evening at the 2025 Devon Fall Classic, as Stella Stinnett and Storiall Blue raced to victory in the $10,000 Speed Stake, sponsored by Land Rover Main Line.
Stinnett and Storiall Blue have been partnered for three years, and on Friday night her strategy was to ride conservatively—and it paid off. “[Storiall Blue] is really unique because I can go and do anything like this, and I am never nervous—never scared—I know he’s got my back,” Stinnett remarked.
“Devon is a huge goal for everyone, and for me, especially growing up here. This is an iconic show, and it has always been my dream to show under the lights,” said Stinnett. A Pennsylvania native from New Hope, she was making her first appearance under the lights in the prestigious Dixon Oval. And she couldn’t have done it alone: “Thanks to the whole team that supports me and Storiall, and especially my mom and dad.”
Close on their heels, Michael Kocher guided Stephanie Easler’s Chanel 479 to a strong second-place finish, while Collin Reynolds and Shannon Lilley’s Ideal HX rounded out the top three with an impressive third-place effort.
Competition at the Devon Fall Classic continues Saturday, September 13, with the feature class of the weekend, the $25,000 Devon Fall Classic, sponsored by Bryn Mawr Hospital & Main Line Health.
