Megan Jones and Cadello MPH win the CCN2*-S at Wallaby Hill

It’s been a big couple of days at Wallaby Hill Farm in NSW, Australia with Young Horse Champions crowned and some very exciting horses to look forward to watching next season! 

Niki Rose and Megan Jones took the two big classes with Niki not only winning the Discovery Floats CCN2*-S  6/7YO Young Horse class on board Dreamrush but also winning the overall Young Horse Champion with Cooley All Over, who took second place in the same class while Alex Townsend took third place riding WHF Liquorice  

Megan Jones and Cadello MPH went one better than their second place in the CCI2*-L at Sydney International with a win in the Brancourts CCN2*-S ahead of Holly Anderson riding TW Great One and Hamish Cargill riding Cil Dara Diaz.
