The previous high individual score for Ben and Behlinger was 69.735% set in Wellington in February.

Callie of Henderson, Kentucky and her 11-year-old Hanoverian gelding and Kayla of Fairfax Station, Virgina on Perfect Step were both on 69.559% along with Great Britain’s Rebecca Swain on Bon Jovi.

The individual result for Ben and Behlinger was the highest for an American combination in the fifth year of the USA Young Rider European circuit and came a day after Callie and Don Philippo scored 71.225% for the highest team test score by any American Young Rider pair on the the European circuit. The pair placed fourth.

This is the second year on the European circuit for the 19-year-old Ben, who is a freshman majoring in business at Carnegie-Mellon University, one of the most highly rated private research institutes in the world and located in Pittsburgh.

He competed on both dressage and jumping in Wellington, Florida where his parents are based during the winter circuits.
