Equestrian Australia's CEO, Grant Baldock is really excited about the Awards night, "The night really will be a celebration of everything that is great about equestrian in Australia – it is set to be one big party!" says Grant, "This year we’re going all out for the gala event with live entertainment, Australian sports star and television personality Nicole Livingstone will be our MC on the night, not to mention the great venue we’ve selected. 2010 was another outstanding year for equestrian sport and on top of recognising those who have achieved excellence throughout the year, we’ll also be introducing the Equestrian Australia Hall of Fame. Australia’s equestrian athletes, coaches and support teams are renowned right around the world and we thought it was time to recognise those throughout history who have helped make the sport what it is today. This is one party you won’t want to miss – so be sure you get your tickets and come along!"
