Australia’s Andrew Hoy Comes From “Down Under” to Take the 2006 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event presented by Farnam

Rails fell like raindrops during the final day of the 2006 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event presented by Farnam at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, on Sunday, April 30. The performances were as unpredictable as the weather, which opened the door for Australia’s Andrew Hoy and his Master Monarch to prove they were indeed the masters of the three-day CCI**** grueling showdown.

The pair was atop the leaderboard and winners of one of the most coveted prizes in the eventing world. It was a first Rolex Championship win for Hoy in his four starts. There were only seven total clear rounds of the show jumping course, which was designed by Richard Jeffery.
