SIX Mile Water Riding Club held their popular annual Working Hunter Show at Laurel View Equestrian Centre on Sunday, August 11.

The club were blown away once again with the entries, with not far off 80 rounds jumped for the third year in a row!

The club would like to express their thanks to the sponsors, KR Equine Veterinary Services Ltd, brilliant facilities from Laurel View Equestrian Centre, photography by Equi-Tog and the fabulous judging team of Olaf, Dawn and Tara Kerr. Everyone had a super day in the sun.

SMWRC really appreciate the support from competitors and helpers and are already looking forward to 2025!
