2009 Equine Nutrition Australia - Grand National Qualifier - SHC-SA HOTY Show, 24th and 25th Oct 2009 at Mt Pleasant

So who is coming to the SHC-SA HOTY off of the SAEF??

I'll be the one stuck in the clubrooms rushing around trying to get numbers, etc to people....

But you do such a great job. And it is a great show, I know how much work yo put into it.

I will be there with my 2 boys, only doing the led and novice classes tho they arn't ready for the open classes yet, maybe next year.

I will be there with the monster.. who might be a monster due to lack of work cause ive been in nz..

I have been asked to go and strap, but will know more this weekend.

well everything is nearly organised.... have record entries for the show, record sponsors for the show, trade stands, etc.... GONNA BE HUGE!!! even if you are not competing should come down for a look

Bec (from this forum) will be there.

Me too

Sorry Mel, forgot about YOU!

I'll be there both days. Running a hunter pony out in his led class on Sat and then my pony has his classes on the sunday. Looking forward to it.

Good luck to all those riding & organising this weekend.

So how did everyone go?

I went, and had an absolute ball.. I got to see my galloway who has been leased out to friends of ours in adelaide, my boy was very well behaved, and i walked away with a placing in every class bar one.

Brossy (aka Footlight Statement -- my galloway and my namesake) went home with 6th in the child's galloway, and his rider got 7th in her rider out of a very big class of talented riders.

Harry Monster came home with 5th in the led show hack, 4th in the novice show hack, and 3rd in the open (considering he was getting tired and cranky, he did a lovely workout, including a really nice flying change) and i got 5th in my rider (i didnt get last like i usually do, i was so amazed and astonished!)

My sisters (forum name kazza) hack came home with 2nd in the novice show hack, and she got 3rd in the lady rider over 21 years...

first of all, Brossy!










Then theres kate (my sisters horse)






Then theres mister monster man the absolute legend!

Well done again FS and Kazza. My daughter rode for the first time and came home with a 4th and 2 5ths so we were very happy. Well done to the organisers for a fab weekend

Awesome guys, BIG congratulations

I was absolutely stoked with my anglo who WON the led show hack over 15hh. I had tears in my eyes as it is not often that an 'arab' does well in the open hack ring and certainly not a big show such as this. I was so happy that I scratched him from his ridden class, just the novice, and just rodehim around instead, as I was just so stokedI didn't want to go backwards.

My little pony worked his socks off but didn't place in either his led or novice ridden but that's okay, maybe next time.


Here he is in his lovely new rug, they are great rugs. Now my two boys have matching rugs, Posh got one at the Rising Star showearlier in the year.
