Emily recently competed at Coalfields Riding club, and proved she can still compete with the best of them, bringing home a couple of sashes. Emily is a very educated pony, she has competed at many agricultural shows and Royal shows including Sydney Royal Easter Show, she has competed at state level pony club. She jumps, she hacks, she is a great alrounder.
Emily is settling in well and loves all the cuddles and attention she is getting, keep them coming!
Also in the news Casey and her very own pony Zip competed at the latest Coalfields day, bringing home the ribbons including Reserve Champion led pony! This was Casey and Zips first competition and they did great, congratulations Casey and Zip you both did an excellent job and should be very proud. Zip was presented beautifully and Casey rode like a true champion, Im sure this will be a combination to watch, with many more ribbons to be won in the future.
