Congratulations to Caitlin McKee on winning her first Amateur race!

We are so proud of her hard work and dedication.

Caitlin has been a part of the Phillips Equine family for so long, from learning to ride to working for us.

She truly is one in a million.

Let's show her some love and support by going back through our posts and celebrating her achievements. 🏇🏆🎉

We are so blessed with our amazing coaches we've had.

Portia Matthews has certainly showed she has what it takes to be at the top.

Portia Matthews has had a great start to the jumps season and secured two wins on the weekend for trainer Mark Oulaghan including the Waikato Hurdle on Berry The Cash 🤩

The jumps jockey premiership leader with 11 wins has had great success on the son of Jakkalberry, winning five races including the Grand National Hurdle and Manawatu Hurdle.

The standout hurdler added another feature to his ever-growing list of achievements with a dominant victory in the Waikato Hurdle at the hands of Matthews 🏆

“He’s incredible, and we haven’t seen the end of it now,” she said.

Less than two hours later Matthews and Oulaghan teamed up again with stablemate Super Spirit who prevailed in a stirring contest to win his maiden steeplechase 🙌

07/05/2024

Another of our past coaches excelling in their Passion!

Another example of where your New Zealand Pony Clubs A and H Level can get you.

Well done Portia Matthews!
