STRIPLING CHALLENGE

The Stripling Challenge is for junior riders aged 10 years and under 14 years old.

When it comes to the test of good, all-round horsemanship, the Man from Snowy River Challenge riders are second to none. On Saturday the up and coming Striplings Challenge riders will put their best foot forward as they compete in five (4) preliminary Challenge events shadowing the Open riders of the MFSR Challenge.

Striplings will compete in the Cattlemen’s Jump, Whipcrack, Bareback and Packhorse events.

In the quest to find today’s youngest Man from Snowy River rider this event highlights the special relationship between horse and rider, showcasing the level of skill and control required to test and prepare youngsters for the Open Man from Snowy River Challenge in the years ahead.
