Victorian Arabian Classic - January 2010
VAHA's annual Show 'The Classic' was held on the 2nd and 3rd January @ Werribee Park.
An easy show for us with only our two Jnr Fillies, A'Diva and Vaya attending,
A'Diva (her first outing as a yearling), won the yearling filly class and then went onto be named Champion Jnr Filly. She was also awarded the Avondale Trophy for best state bred yearling. This is the second year we have won this award, which we are very of. Vaya was placed second in the 2yo filly class.
We would also like to congratulate Onida Park on winning the Purebred Newcomer under Saddle Class and Champion Novice Ridden Purebred with Adaiss (SarezinxAvondale Special). We are sure this will be the first of many awards for this talented young gelding and wish them all the best competing in the Young Saddle Class at East Coast Championships later in the year.
Below are some more lovely pictures from ABlue Moon Images of A'Diva, and of course thanks again to the Future Farms team for all their work.
