Maree Young, 2024 Australian Brumby Challenge, Stony Creek (2025)

From Wild to Wonderful in 150 days, with the finals being held at Equitana Melbourne in November.

16/10/24........Our first big show! Geelong Royal!
On the Wednesday of Geelong show week, they held a couple of brumby classes, which was the perfect opportunity to take Benny out to experience a night in a stable, and large show atmosphere in preparation for EQUITANA Melbourne
We had a little heart in mouth moment Tuesday evening when Benny took a bit of fright at the small, dark stable with the squeaky door...and attempted to join me outside via the split door! 🙈🙈🙈.....but settled down amazingly quickly with his dinner, and myself with a cold can..(No doubt I was more traumatised than he was about it! 😣🙈😅)
We had the lovely pleasure of sharing the brumby ring with fellow brumby challenge trainers Erin Beattie and Aztec. 2024 CopRice Australian Brumby Challenge., and Kiara-Jane Stanley with Domino, and we all couldn't be prouder of our brums and how they did with the squealing ponies, jangling harness horses, and big sideshow rides being set up nearby. 🤗
Congratulations to Erin and Kiara for placing 2nd and 3rd respectively, with myself and Benny bringing up the rear in 4th place and a lovely yellow ribbon to take home. 🐎💞🤗
Although I'd put entries in for both the led and ridden rings ahead of time, I felt we were at a lovely calm place after the led ring, so gave the ridden class a miss, and quietly finished the morning with a walk and graze, before packing up for the long drive back home.😊 CopRice Australian Brumby Challenge

On the 15/10/24......myself and Benny took a little trek to the other side of the city, in readiness for the brumby classes at Geelong Royal Show the following day.
Earlier on my friend and fellow brumby challenge trainer .beats suggested a little brumby play date and catch up prior to the show, which I was quite excited to do 🤗.....so we met up at property in Meredith for a catch up at her great little horsey playground and chat about how our wild boys were coming along..🐎💞
After a long drive up (made longer by a crash at the tunnel 😣😣😣), and our obstacle course play date in the warm weather, we were grateful to head back to Erin's place for a cold drink and couple hours rest before making our way over to Geelong showgrounds for the night.......😊 CopRice Australian Brumby Challenge Rope n Ride EQUITANA Melbourne

8/10/24........7th ride, and actually his first ride in a saddle! lol. All previous riding leading up to that day were in the ba****ck pad. A little surreal thinking this was his first ride under saddle just 20 days ago.....and in 2 weeks will be getting ready to head to EQUITANA Melbourne !!!! 😮🙈
We were joined by good friend Ebony and her young fella Merlin....who is also in the early stages of his education, and enjoys coming out for a play date or stroll along the trails 🤗 They both enjoyed getting out for a little explore and were super good boys 🤗.
A lovely day out, and finished up with a real good roll in the sand pit before heading home again. 🐎💞

On 29/9/24 we took a little drive to Ravens Park obstacle play at Traralgon. This was a good little outing for Benny to go somewhere different with a few other horses, riders and obstacles to navigate. And also met up with fellow brumby challenge pair Blair and Callisto from Lonesome Oak Horses Who also took these lovely pics and videos of myself and Benson on course. 🤗
A good little quiet and welcoming space to take horses for an outing and try something new.🐎💞
