Bridgehampton, NY-August 31, 2008-Jennifer Waxman, 16, of Chagrin Falls, Ohio, won Sunday’s $25,000 Calvin Klein Show Jumping Derby at the Hampton Classic Horse Show. Waxman won aboard Outline in a timed jump-off against five other riders, swooping over the final course in 34.385 seconds. They were followed by Addison Phillips of New York City on Teirra (36.051) in second place and Hungarian Henri Kovaks, who is based in Middleburg, Va., finishing third with G-5 (36.291). All three went double-clear.
One of the nation’s premier show jumping competitions, the Hampton Classic concludes Sunday, August 31. The Classic hosts hunter/jumper competition for riders ranging from the youngest competitors in Leadline and Short Stirrup classes all the way up to Olympic veterans in the $200,000 FTI Grand Prix. Show entries include two Olympic riders who flew in directly from the Olympic show jumping competition in Hong Kong: McLain Ward, a member of the gold medal-winning U.S. team, and individual gold medalist Eric Lamaze of Canada.
Waxman had a remarkable week at the Hampton Classic and showed the field of 30 competitors in the Calvin Klein Show Jumping Derby how it’s done. She piloted Outline, who has a long, ground-covering stride, handily over the six obstacles in the Jumping Derby jump-off. Waxman positioned the horse perfectly on the approach to the Wolffer Estate oxer, which came off a hairpin turn from a vertical, and then kicked on to a tricky combination. That series of fences was the undoing of several of her competitors, some of whom had a refusal or rails down.
While Waxman darted off for two more rides in another class immediately after her win, her trainer, Emily Smith of Wellington, Fla., explained her win. “Jen really followed the plan,” she said. “The horse has a big stride, and she stuck to riding him exactly the way we planned.”
Smith, who has been training Waxman for eight years, said they were “very pleased with this year’s progress.” Aboard Falcon, Waxman won both the Hunter Phase and the Grand Championship of the WIHS International Equitation competition at this year’s Hampton Classic.

SAUGERTIES, NEW YORK (August 7, 2008)–After three days of exciting competition, a new champion was crowned when Jennifer Waxman rode her mount Red Panda to the Grand Championship at the 2008 East Coast USEF Junior Hunter Championship on Wednesday afternoon at HITS Saugerties.
The Ohio native used an overall score of 87.63 aboard Red Panda, who is owned by John Ingram, in the Small Junior Hunter 16-17 Division to win the title. “Jen rose to the occasion,” said trainer Emily Smith. “It was a new venue for Red Panda and that horse put its entire heart into it.”
“I started riding him a few months ago,” said Waxman. “It has really worked out well. The courses were really hard for the finals. But I thought that was good because it divided the people competing easily.”
Taking the honors of Reserve Grand Champion was North Country, piloted by Johanna Hyyppa. Hyyppa, who is trained by Andre Dignelli of Heritage Farms, had an overall score of 85.63 in the Large Junior Hunter 16-17 Division. Other division winners include Caprice, with Genevieve Zock in the irons, who won the Large Junior Hunter 15 & Under Division and The War Dress Memorial Trophy for the Leading Mare. Taking the top honors in the Small Junior Hunter 15 & Under Division was Corvette Z, who was owned and ridden by Samantha Schaefer, while Christina Gellos and Sirius Black earned the Reserve Champion in that division.
Other Reserve Champions included Caitlin Hope and Lyle in the Small Junior 16-17 Division, Adrienne Sternlicht and Mimosa in the Large Junior 15 & Under Division and Taylor Brown and Bering C in the Large Junior 16-17 Division.
“It was very competitive,” said Smith, who operates Ashland Farm with her husband Ken. “I thought it was wonderful. Everyone here was very accommodating and friendly. It was a job well done by everyone involved.”
“This year’s competition not only had an increased number of riders, but also had high caliber riders,” said Marion Maybank, USEF’s Director of Hunter Divisions and coordinator for the Finals. “Jerry Dougherty’s fantastic courses were flowing and really gave the kids a chance to be sharp and demonstrate to the judges the skills that got them here.”
“My trainers, Ken and Emily Smith, are amazing,” said Waxman. “I also want to give special thanks to John Ingram. Winning this title was certainly a team effort.”
