Where do you see yourself riding in 5 years? Competing at the highest level I can in many disciplines.Including, Polocrosse, ODE's and Jumping. and more if i can fit them in.
Why do you want to be part of the Barastoc Junior Squad? Barastoc is a big supporter of Polocrosse. I would be honored to be involved in a company that promotes my sport that I love.
How do you think being a member of the Barastoc Junior Squad will help your riding? I would like to compete in other disciplines as I competed in my first Coonabarabran Horse Expo which I came second in my very first show jumping, 4th in the three day eventing, reserve champion in the sporting and reserve champion over all. I borrowed a horse a week before the event as my horse I was taking went out lame. This beautiful horse had been turned out for 5 years and came in for a quick clip and some much needed exercise to do so well at the Expo. We still have him now so I plan on doing some jumping lessons at school and competing in some more ODE's. As we all understand, horses cost a lot of money so if I could help Mum and Dad with something towards getting me to an event, I'm sure they would be very happy, and I might be able to get to some more.
Which Barastoc Ambassador would you most like to meet? Carissa Reinke
Have you fed Barastoc to your horses in the past? If so, what products did you use? Yes, we use Work Horse, and the supplement groom. We have been talking about starting the Barley and Molasses. I currently boil barley to mix in with the Work Horse.
