Showcase of Showjumping at Sydney Polo Club this Weekend!

 

Yandoo Equestrian Services, in Association with Equestrian NSW, presents the Showcase of Showjumping (SOS) this weekend at the stunning Sydney Polo Club in Richmond.

The SOS weekend has been designed with spectators in mind. There will be tents and seating placed on all four edges of the competition arenas. Spectator participation will be maximized with raffles, lucky door prizes and a unique opportunity to be represented by each rider as they jump their round. If the rider wins, their spectator wins too and the prizes are fabulous, with flat screen TVs up for grabs on Sunday!

The finest showjumping talent in the Junior, Young Rider and Senior divisions from around Australia will converge on Peter and Rebecca Higgins' beautiful property 'Highfield' to stake their claim on the $16 000 prize pool up for grabs.

Australia's best Showjumpers are in Sydney for a string of elite events that began last weekend at the Sydney Royal Easter Show. Young Guns Tom McDermott from Wagga, NSW and Evie Buller from WA are making the seasoned riders, such as Olympian Vicki Roycroft from Mt White, NSW (pictured), worry after they collected 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the Sydney Royal Easter Show Grand Prix Sweepstakes, World Cup Qualifier last Wednesday. This pair are still eligible to compete in the Young Riders division which is the most hotly contested competition on the circuit. They will continue their battle this weekend on the polo field.

Admission and parking are free, seating is provided, there is an extensive trade village alongside the arena, food and beverages are available at the grounds and there is plenty of room for picnics.

Bring your friends and family, take in the scorching competition at this incredible venue and enjoy a social outing that rivals the prestigious Showjumping scene in Europe.
