Bit of a delayed post but so bloody proud of the amazing team of horses I had the honour of riding at Australian Stock Horse Nationals this year at AELEC in May.

⭐️ Gest Like Tess (owned by Wendy Miller of Redground ASH Stud) competed in the 5 yr old Futurity Challenge. She won the campdraft section of this challenge running a whopping 90points which landed us 7th overall in the challenge.

⭐️Riverdale Indiana (owned by Wendy Miller of Redground ASH Stud) competed in the 3yr old Futurity challenge. This 3yr old is also very impressive with her level headedness although she did not place in a very big class I was super happy with how she presented herself.

⭐️Geebung Hustler (Owned by the Geebung Hustler Syndicate) came out for a week and competed in the Abby Open Challenge. He did well in all the elements of this event however no luck with the cattle this year which means he did not place overall.

⭐️Geebung Tuxedo (Owned by Peter Daley) came out for his first time as a Led yearling. He placed very well in the yearling futurity landing a 13th overall out of 46 competitors. He also competed in the Led Yearling C**t class with a 3rd overall in this class. He was such a well behaved boy in all aspects which gives me great excitement for his future career.

A huge heartfelt thank you to the owners, friends and family who helped and came to support because there was absolutely no way I could have prepped and competed this amazing team of horses without you all.

Last weekend took us to our last show in 2023 at "Northern Branch ASHS Show" at Gunnedah.

⭐️ Riverdale Indiana (owned by Wendy Miller) competed in the 3 Year Old Futurity and ended up with a 4th overall and a 2nd in her working section of the challenge.

⭐️ Geebung Oc*****sy (owned by Peter Daley) also competed in the 3yr old Futurity and ended up 7th overall and was very well behaved.

⭐️Geebung Hustler (owned by Geebung Hustler Syndication) is really showing his versatility with yet another new jockey. Tiffany Allomes jumped aboard competing in the encouragement challenge finishing 5th overall. The duo also competed in the show classes on the Saturday picking up plenty of ribbons. Tiff has been dying for the chance to ride him and since she is 18yrs old now she didn't miss her chance.

Super proud of all the horses over the weekend competing in the heat and also in the middle of breeding season.
