Belated post but a few weeks ago we both competed at Maryborough Active Riders Club Inc Star Champs.
We took four horses and had some great results.
- San Bernardino (Richie) placed 5th & 6th in his Prelim tests scoring up to 69%. He also stepped up to Novice for the first time placing in both his tests for Overall Reserve Champion Novice.
- Carratum Park Rose Petal (Rosie) was her usual super-star both days posting some good scores and being always so perfect.
- Harmonys Hope (Smarty) had her first comp back after a long hiatus picking up a ribbon in her Novice Test.
- Helmsman (Moose) continues to be really consistent performing his best work in the warm up. 🤷🏽♀️ One day we will be able to pull it altogether, until then we just keep trying.
📸 The biggest thanks to Jane Sheppard for always capturing the most beautiful photos of us both.
Thanks to our wonderful sponsors who always support us in whatever discipline we are competing or horse we are riding.

Our beautiful Eddie “Aikau” left for his new home last week. He sold to the first person to ride him.
We all fell in love with Eddie, very early on. So it was a very hard goodbye. But he has found the most wonderful home where he will be loved and appreciated for the gentle & willing soul he is.
Another horse owned by the MyRacehorseAU, retrained through the Queensland Off The Track program and sold by us.
We love the work MyRacehorse do, the care & support they provide to their racehorses post racing is incredible.

The beautiful Chiqa sold in about 5 minutes of us advertising her last week. She has gone down south to a super home that has also shown some of her relatives.
We are so happy with the wonderful home she has found, she will be well and truly spoilt - as she deserves.
The biggest thanks to El for riding her for us so we could take some nice video. 🦄
