After the long, enforced break from shows, we are very excited to report that, in Queensland at least, riders have returned to competition. The Equestrian Gold Coast Club (EGCC) held their Winter Showjumping Festival last Sunday, 9th August at their lovely grounds at Oxenford.
In total 15 classes were held across two rings, with heights ranging from the 50cm-60cm class up to 1.30m.
The star of the day was undoubtedly Brooke Langbecker. Langbecker who last year was part of the victorious Willinga Park Team in the inaugural season of the Australian Jumping Teams League (AJTL), partnered with her 13 year old stallion Quintago 1, to take out the TRH Equine Vets 1.30m feature class of the day. Going double clear, Langbecker and “Quiny” were just 0.15 seconds quicker in the jump-off than the second placegetter, Beijing LS La Silla, also ridden by Langbecker. Just to top things off, Langbecker also filled the sixth placing in combination with another stallion Black Jack IXE, owned by her parents. The combination of Jamie Raymont and 10-year-old stallion, Just Dutch were third, topping off a great day for Raymont, who won two other classes on the day.
In the Thoroughbred Sport Horse Association (TSHA) classes, Anita Bridge excelled, taking out both the 0.80m and 1.00m classes in combination with Genuine Article, a 13-year-old gelding that she bred and owns.
