How exciting for Liv! Good luck Team Gostelow Equestrian
At 19, Olivia Gostelow is already building a strong record in Young Rider competition, with Bellhaven Coolibah at the centre of many of those results.
The pair won the 1.35m Young Rider at Willinga Park World Cup in 2025, before returning this year to finish third in the same division. Olivia has also been runner-up in the Young Rider Final at Tamworth World Cup and contested the 1.45m final at the Australian Young Rider Championships.
Equestrian sport is very much part of the Gostelow family. Olivia’s father Martin has commentated showjumping, dressage and eventing at Olympic level, while her mother Sophia has spent more than sixteen years bringing leading Holsteiner bloodlines from Germany to Australia and New Zealand.
At Kurri Burri, Olivia now joins a field of emerging Australian talent stepping into international U25 competition.
Saturday 3 October will see Australia’s inaugural FEI Under 25 2* Grand Prix contested over 1.45m, with $20,000 in prize money and Longines Ranking points on offer.
2–4 October 2026 | Kurri Burri Polo Club, Richmond Lowlands, NSW
