If you ever wanted to window shop for your next champion hunter, the Devon Horse Show is the place to be. Meet some of the hunters who floated their way to top ribbons on the first day of the green professional hunter divisions.

In the 3’6″ green hunters, it was Sandy Ferrell’s day. She showed two horses for Stephanie Bulger, and they both brought home a blue.
