Will Coleman from Ocala, Florida, and his Holsteiner gelding Diabolo made history by winning the 2026 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5-L in Lexington, Kentucky. This marked their debut at the CCI5-L level, where they finished with an impressive final score of 28.1.
Coleman’s victory places him among an elite group, becoming only the tenth U.S. athlete ever to win at this prestigious level. Diabolo, owned by the Diabolo Group and cared for by Erin Jarboe, played a key role in this significant achievement.
