It was a gorgeous weekend – hopefully everyone got out there to enjoy it.

Preparations are underway for this year’s Yarra Valley Horse Show at Wesburn Park December 14 2025.

We have some added classes this year including side-saddle which is a fantastic addition for spectators to see our ladies historic form of horse riding.

The Eminent Turnout will be on again and we hope to get many elegant campaigners out for the $250 cash prize.

We also have the addition of Riding Pony classes in the breeds ring, joining our Welsh, APSB, Dilutes and Pinto classes.

As usual open rings, Pony Club ring, topsy and HRCAV rings will be running with something for absolutely everyone.

If any Breed Societies or sponsors wish to be involved please contact Anita Prowse asap at: anita.horses@gmail.com

Next weekend sees show jumping at Shirley Heights EC starting with freshmans on Friday.
