16 and 17 December saw everyone at Glen Haven Park loading up all the Singapore horses into our two trucks and taking them to Caboolture Showgrounds Indoor arena, for a two day training show. It took the two trucks three trips to transport all the horses from Kilcoy to Caboolture. The horses did themselves proud and behaved really well in the new environment of a strange arena. The riders were also thrilled with the way the horses handled the different courses, constructed to test their ability in a show type situation. All horses were jumped around several different tracks of varying heights, depending on their level of training at this stage. This proved very successful and all horses adapted well, not worrying about the loudspeakers with commentary and music or the different feel of jumping indoors. It was a very full on two days and at the end of the second day horses, grooms and riders were all happy to make the trip home to Kilcoy!
