Our current star performer is Chico de Luxe. Chico was broken in and educated by Rhianon Pettigrove of Liberty Sport Horses, Gherang, Victoria in April - May 2015. Since then he has made huge inroads in his ongoing education, so much so that he has recently competed at his first two dressage competitions. He came third in two events run by the Western Port Dressage Club at Werribee Park on October 4. Two weeks later, again at Werribee Park he gained another third placing and won first place in the 4yo Young Pony put on by the Australian Sports Pony Registry.
On all occasions he has been very ably and capably ridden by Rhianon who has taken a keen interest in his quest to qualify for Dressage with the Stars to be held at Werribee Park National Equestrian Centre in March, 2016.
He is currently in work for the 4yo young pony qualifier to be held at the Saddleworld Dressage Festival on December 10.
