There is something deeply special about watching a horse you have bred walk into a Grand Prix arena and come out with the win.
At the 2026 GDP Classic, that moment belonged to Emma Collins and Oaks Abracadabra.
In a feature class that came down to three double clears and less than a second on the clock, Emma and Oaks Abracadabra delivered when it counted. They were faultless in Round One, stopping the clock at 81.41 seconds inside the 85-second time allowed. They returned for Round Two and again jumped clear, this time in 46.54 seconds, to secure the title on a total of zero penalties.
For Oaks Sport Horses, seeing Oaks Abracadabra rise to the top once again is immensely rewarding.
