* The Katharyn O'Driscoll 95cm Class & Young Rider Award *

We are grateful to be able to have a committee full of friends, family, and loved ones to help us with the organisation of our Event. However there is always one smiling face we dearly miss each and every year.
Our beloved committee member, but mostly our dear friend, Katharyn was tragically taken from us in 2019.
Katharyn’s family continue to honour her love and dedication to our event, and the equestrian community, with the “Katharyn O’Driscoll 95cm Young Rider Award”
The winner of the class will receive a cash prize generously donated by her family.

We are grateful to have known you, Katharyn. Forever in our hearts 💙

Elite Equine Bedding have joined our stable of sponsors this year as a 95cm class sponsor!
Their 100% Australian made pelletised pine bedding offers great benefits for horse stables; it provides excellent absorbency, reduces odours and creates a comfortable surface for horses to stand and lay on.
Their product is easy to store and easy to clean up - saving you time and effort!
Simply lay the bags of pellets in your stable, yard or float, cut them open and activate the pellets with water - in as little as 10 minutes, the pellets will fluff up and be easy to spread out.
