A few days ago, it was announced that Jordan LaPlaca’s Gold Play would not be competing. Now, the change affects Genay Vaughn and the KWPN gelding Gino, who will also not be competing, according to the US Equestrian Federation.
Replacing her will be 35-year-old Meagan Davis, riding her 13-year-old son of Totilas and Onassis, Toronto Lightfoot.
As a junior and young rider, Davis competed in numerous U.S. championships. However, her Grand Prix career didn’t truly begin until she partnered with Toronto Lightfoot, a son of Totilas born in Denmark. The pair enjoyed success on the international Small Tour circuit until 2024, when their Grand Prix career really took off. In their home state of Florida, they have repeatedly achieved scores of over 70 percent in Grand Prix and Special classes. Most recently in Hagen, they competed in the Nations Cup, scoring 68.565 percent in the Grand Prix and 68.532 percent in the Special.
