The Benchmark Farm Trophy is a stunning custom glass sculpture commissioned on behalf of our generous sponsor and will be displayed in the AHS office. The names of each year’s winners will be engraved on a plaque affixed to the trophy’s base. The glass itself features an elegant etching of a mare in beautiful form as she jumps a fence. The trophy is named in honor of the award’s designer, Phyllis Hamilton of Benchmark Farm Studio.
