Congratulations to our 2015 ARBC OPEN Challenge Champion “Pepin Coda Lena” Ridden by Rob Leach

 

Rob Leach had this to say after winning “It’s great to come to an event like this and to ride with some of Australia’s best Reiners, it’s really helped me raise the bar and standard on what I do with my horses in the Challenge Competitions. It’s helped me add polish to my riding and given me  more confidence. To win a Trophy Saddle and Buckle is pretty special in Challenge Competition, thank you to Errol for putting this event on.”

The ARBC National Derby Show welcomed the Open Stockman’s Challenge competitors with 21 of Australia’s top Challenge horse and rider combinations competing for 100% Added Prize money along with an ARBC Trophy Saddle donated by Shaun and Ian Saunders
and a hand crafted Rick Meredith ARBC Trophy Buckle. It was  great to see two disciplines coming together and embracing the skill both brings to the pen. Many of the challenge competitors arrived the night before the event and it was a great atmosphere with both Reiners and challenge competitors riding in open pen and supporting each other.
