A very belated post, but there was a bit of dust to be settled after such a whirlwind Futurity! What a show it was. We just wanted to say a huge thank you to A LOT of people and sponsors that make such a magical night even possible. To the NCHA, well done under testing times to host one of the biggest Futurity’s ever, your preparation, advertising, updates and webcast was outstanding and allowed a huge following to watch along and enjoy. Thank you to cattle donors and transporters throughout the event- often many unsung hero’s amongst you. Our huge help team around the pen- Jessie, Vick, Geoff and Trish & Cambo and to the awesome guys who faithfully show up for every run in the pen- Matt Oakley, Steve Smith, Mark Buttsworth and Hugh Miles, we’d be lost without you all.
To all of our valued clients, who we also get to call our great friends, thank you for entrusting us with your horses.
Sponsors Tuffrock and Prydes EasiFeed
thanks for keeping them looking and feeling great.
A very special thank you needs to go out to our vet and friend Phil Manchon. Your tireless work around the clock during the Futurity was a superhuman effort. We appreciate you more than you’d ever know.
Congratulations Jamie and Sarah Inglis on your first Futurity champion!
It was pretty special to finish 3rd in a great line up of open horses on our own ‘Speaking’ who we also bred, being out of Slithering’.
We were straight back into next years line up when we got home, and also enjoying watching Mitch Lynham put the 2028 prospects through their paces. NUTRIEN sale horses are getting sorted as are the Brahman Week bulls, so plenty going on. Thanks again to everyone who wished us well, watched, cheered and congratulated us, we can’t wait for next year, and hopefully will catch up again soon!
