Adrienne Lyle made a successful return to international competition aboard Helix, her 14-year-old Dutch Warmblood and Paris Olympic mount, by winning the Grand Prix CDI3* at the World Equestrian Center in Ocala, Florida, with a score of 72.23%. This marked their first competition together since the FEI World Cup Finals in April 2025. Lyle expressed enjoyment in competing without the pressure of qualification, allowing her to experiment and stick to their planned routine, noting Helix’s relaxed and confident performance.

Canada’s Denielle Gallagher and Come Back de Massa placed second with 68.45%, followed closely by Kevin Kohmann and Sonata MF in third with 68.17%. Lyle also acknowledged the valuable support from Helix’s owner, Heidi Humphries, appreciating the understanding and rewarding nature of their non-linear journey together.
