February Team Member of the Month - Tom Sedger

Another month has flown by with training of the Singapore horses ongoing and another two day training show at Caboolture Indoor Arena under our belts. Overall the horses behaved impeccably and have improved in the short time since they were last at Caboolture. Also, the end of February meant it was once again time to award the prestigious Glen Haven Park Team Member of the Month to a worthy candidate. February's Team Member of the month was awarded to very hard working rider/trainer (and team farrier), Tom Sedger. Tom always has a positive attitude when working with the horses and is dedicated to furthering their training to make sure they are the best they can be for the Olympic Games and their future careers. He is determined and tenacious (in a good way!) with improving the horses flat work and jumping and is always open to advice and suggestions, willing to work on his horsemanship and riding. Tom shows great initiative by giving horses extra work if he feels they need it, without being asked and is always available to ride more horses if needed. Of course, as well as his riding and training of the horses, Tom is a Master Farrier by trade and when he's not in the saddle he can be found, head down, making shoes or under one of the horses, taking care of their feet! Congratulations Tom on your outstanding efforts and being awarded February Team Member of the Month!
