SACB 40th Anniversary Branch Show
by Melissa Morris
As we look back over the previous forty years, we recognise the milestone 40th year of our branch and
celebrate the past, present and future of our branch amongst our members. What better way to celebrate
than to hold a 40th Anniversary Branch Show at the lovely Strathalbyn polo grounds!
Conditions on the day were near perfect with blue skies, green turf and warm weather, which enabled some
great photographic opportunities and happy riders. We held a challenge and two ASH rings, one was designated for youth events. Ring 1 was where all the action was with huge entries in some classes. The judge
electing to work out the best five in each class in some cases, to be able keep the program moving.

SACB 40th Anniversary Show continued..
Numbers in youth events in SA have been low for some time. The SACB has been working hard to promote these events. We chose
to run a program that includes all levels of youth riders. This event however , did not attract the numbers that we had hoped for. But
the SACB hopes that the word will get around about all the fun and prizes that the riders shared and maybe next time we can get
more entries !!
Brodie Johnson and GLEN RAY RIVOLI REMINGTON (RIVOLI REWARD – HSH/GLEN LEE RIVOLI VASELEAN ) had wins in the
Youth handler 13 and under 18 years, ASH hack rider under 18, Pleasure hack rider under 18 a 2 nd in Novice youth rider under 18.

Presidents Report
Hi to all SACB and ASHS Members,
What better way to kick off the 2012/2013 show season than with our 40 th Anniversary celebration branch show.
We were graced with lovely warm weather and im sure everyone would agree the grounds were fantastic to ride on. We saw a
fantastic display of some of the best ASH’s that SA has to offer, with up to 15 in some classes – how do you choose?!!! Everyone
seemed to enjoy the day. It was a fun and relaxed atmosphere and one of the best ways to enjoy our Australian Stock horses.
I would like to say a huge thank you to all of our wonderful sponsors without you these events would not be successful, I am sure
all of the prize recipients were extremely happy.
Recipients if you haven’t done so, please remember to thank the sponsors!!.
Also a massive thank you to all of the volunteers/ helpers, judges and committee members who worked tirelessly prior to and
throughout the day without people like you who donate their time, these events would not exist.
We had a slightly smaller gathering at the October training day. Our branch coach Felicity had some of our newer members concentrating on their flatwork skills and working on what is required in the ASH show ring. Then in the afternoon a small group got to
have a go at some of the skills required in challenge events, like the keyhole, the gate and poles.
If there is anything else you would like to have a go at on these training days, please mention it to one of our committee members
and we will try and accommodate you.
The saddlery swap meet was also held at the beginning of November, whilst there were fewer stalls and visitors the day was still
successful in bringing in a profit for the branch. We are looking for suggestions on how to better promote the swap meet for next
year. So if any of you have ideas or would like to be involved please let us know.
Events coming up are the Festival all breeds on the 18th November and don’t forget that the SE branch are running their branch
show on the 2nd December – hopefully some of our members will head over and support that. High points shows are Northern
Hack and Halter at Mount Pleasant on the 9th December and Dilute show where we have a ring on the 16th December.
Royal Adelaide show information has just become available, whilst the event is not until March 2013 remember that the closing
date is 14th December.
I hope to see many of you out there and remember to
have fun!
My best wishes to you for a safe and merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year!
Cheers Mel :)

YOUTH NEWS! OUT AND ABOUT, CELEBRATING 40 YEARS!
By Brooklyn Timmins
The Youth ring was in full swing on a beautiful spring day at the recent ASHS SA Central Branch 40 th Anniversary Show, with 5 competitors having a crack at handler, hack, rider and working classes. There we some new faces, some returning faces, some young
faces and some older faces, as for the horses well they were just long faces!
A new face was Keelie Jenner from Strathalbyn Pony Club who had never done a Station Utility Pattern in her life! Lucky her faithful
pony Mickey new what to do and carried her around the ring like she had been doing it for years. A returning face was Brodie Johnston and her horses Glen Lee Rivoli Remington and Indra Lea from all the way down the South East, who displayed some hard to
beat workouts in Hack, Rider and Working Classes. Some young faces include Henry Williams and Chloe Neale who both had great
fun and showed us how versatile there mum Rachel Fenn’s horse Dombarton Cabernet or Savvy as he is known. From the camp
draft arena to the show ring with little legs on top that could hardly touch his belly! An older face nearly time to move on from the
Youth ring was myself, Brooklyn Timmins. Whose horse Pakamass Zigzag had a very grumpy morning but ended up producing a
somewhat respectable work out and some quick haunch turns in the rider and working classes.
The day started off with the Youth Handler classes. We were judged under the watchful eye Mrs. Rosemary Vincent who offered
advice and little tips during the day which all competitors appreciated. The classes continued with Stockman’s Turnout, Rider, Hack
and working. A very important class that was also held was ASH most suitable for beginner rider-rider under 13yrs (May be led). This
showed another side of the Australian Stock Horse in there ability to have a young or more inexperienced rider; ride around without
any resistance or fuss. This truly showed one of the great attributes of the Australian Stock Horse. It was great to see lots of smiles
and laughs from all competitors as the day carried on. At one stage during one of the classes, it almost required a name change to
‘The Best Pigroot Class” as just about every horse had a bee in there bonnet for a few circles. Nevertheless, the horses got on with
the jobs at hand to produce some lovely workouts during the rest of the morning.
The afternoon saw the conclusion of the show classes and the commencement of the Youth Challenge. This saw myself, Keelie Jenner and Henry Williams tackle the showcase of ‘challenging’ events that is the Challenge. A keyhole, barrel race, utility pattern and
bending race were the challenges we faced. The bending race . A very speedy few runs came from the keyhole making that a good
one to grab some points. We then moved on the utility pattern which required much skill and patience for that darn green gate! The
final stage in the challenge was the barrel race. The fast clover leaf pattern every body loves. The youth stayed to watch some of the
greats in the open ring to show us how it is done. Big congratulations go to Keelie Jenner and Mickey for winning the Youth Challenge. In 2nd place Brooklyn Timmins and Pakamass Zigzag, 3rd Henry Williams and Dombarton Cabernet
Special thankyous from behalf of the youth competitors go to the committee for all there hard work, effort and sleepless nights putting
this show together, our judge Mrs Rosemary Vincent who is always offering a kind word and encouragement throughout the day, our
sponsor for there support of the youth classes, our steward Annika Danielsson and any other helper on the day or behind the scenes.

General Rules to consider when in competition…..

With show season starting, make sure that you have all your paperwork in order… are you riding a gelding, but your registration papers still show your horse as a stallion? You will need to get this amended or you could be declined from entering an event
as a result.
It is up to you to follow through on horse transfers and registrations with the ASHS

When competing you should carry your ASHS membership card and horse registration/transfer with you to the event,
just in case you are asked to provide proof.

A polite reminder for judges & competitors not to be too familiar with each other whilst competiing, even though you may
know them personally, do not refer to one another on a first name basis, as this is unprofessional and not appropriate ASHS
Member conduct.
*** Hot Weather Policy update *** SACB run events only
If the weather forecast is for 38C or higher, as published in “The Advertiser” newspaper the day prior, any
SACB run event will be cancelled. This policy only applies to events run by the SACB in their entirety (does not
include events hosted by other organisations such as Agricultural or non-ASH breed societies). To be advised via
the SACB website, via phone/email where possible and printed on the programme.
SACB cannot guarantee entry refunds for events run by other organisations and as such, competitors must
make their own decision to compete in hot weather or not at those particular events.
SACB Facebook Page
We wish to advise all ASHS members, that the SACB Facebook Page is not to be used for Stud Advertising, as there are other
Facebook Pages that allow you to promote your stud. We request that the SACB page is to be kept for ASHS and SACB events & related
business only. We do encourage you to advertise, in this, your branch newsletter or the SACB website instead., and support the ASHS and
the SA Central Branch in that manner. Thank you.

SACB Branch Training Days
Branch training days are held at Tilling Hill, Berry Road Echunga on a regular basis and is open to all ASHS members to attend.
Ride in a super indoor arena and increase your riding skills and further your ASH knowledge with our branch coaches.

Expression of Interest for SA Ladies Clinic
We are seeking an expression of interest from all ASHS ladies for the SA Ladies Clinic in 2013 over a weekend that will fit in with all members and competition dates.
We now take turns with the SE of SA Branch in running this event from year to year, to improve skills with our Australian Stock Horses
and try other disciplines, that we may not usually compete in, EG: polocrosse, dressage, novelties etc.
In 2013 the SA Central Branch will be responsible to run and co-ordinate this event.
We have previously run this with much success, however, to justify the cost of an Accredited ASH Coach we need to find out how many
ladies would attend, before we can go ahead and commit to dates, venues and booking an Accredited ASH Instructor.
If you are interested in attending the Ladies Clinic and would like to put your name on the attendee list or have some ideas that you would
like to share about running the Ladies Clinic please contact Jenny Scheepers 08 8536 8086 or email ashssacb@bigpond.com.au

Dave and I set off on the 17th November with the two SA horses:
Binjali Rustler, owned by the Cadzow’s and my ever-trustworthy
Dombarton Cabernet (Savvy to his friends and family). Lindsay
and Kym Cadzow had a busy weekend with horses in the races in
Adelaide on the Saturday and they planned to drive through the
night to meet us at Equitana on the Sunday morning.
We decided to spend the night with Mat and Tristan Holz in
Modella Victoria in a hope to pick up some tips from someone who
has been very successful in time trials at a national level. So what
was Mat’s tip to me for the challenge?...... ‘go as fast as you can!’.
A man of few words, but hey, you can’t knock the reasoning behind it. We did set up a time trial at Mat and Tristan’s property and
gave the horses a couple of run throughs the day before. Dave took Rustler for a spin on the off chance he would have to step up as
the reserve rider should Kym and Lindsay run into trouble on their journey.
We arrived at Equitana early Sunday morning and were confronted by an A-list line up of riders for the challenge: Michael Hiscock
and Graham Rozinski riding for Victoria; Bill Peadon and Fiona Beer riding for NSW, Mat Holz and Adam Todd riding for WA, and
Jason Fry and David White were flying the banner for QLD. I was happy to be there flying the flag for not only SA but for the ladies
as well!

Equitana
In the morning we had the opportunity to take in some of the Equitana atmosphere. There was a lot to see, and we managed to catch
an ASH breed demonstration put together by Gordan Nash and Mathew Holz. I was extremely disappointed to realise that my nerves
had seriously affected my ability to shop. But not to be deterred I managed to spend a quick few hundred at Angus Barrett Saddlery
before the competition.
Lindsay and I donned our red SA shirts and prepared the horses for the main event. It was a big thrill to ride out onto the arena and
be a part of the Equitana atmosphere. We then realised we had a very strong SA support crew at various spots in the crowd cheering
us on.
The challenge was in 2 rounds with SA drawing second in both rounds. I would ride first for SA, then Lindsay, and we would both ride
the course twice.
The course was TOUGH. It was tight and the ground was extremely slippery. Michael Hiscock went out first and his horse slipped
and slided at every obstacle. I remember thinking that I was going to have to ride smart to keep Savvy upright. When you see such
an accomplished horseman struggling, you have to be wary. Savvy ran the course as he always does, carefully and to the ground
conditions. Unfortunately, my foot knocked over a barrel and we had to add 3s onto our time. All the teams struggled through the
course, with Aaron Todd’s horse falling at the jump and being awarded a restart by the judge. Lindsay also hit some trouble in his
first run at the jump when Rustler lost his footing and sat down on his hindquarters. Thumbs up to Lindsay though as he managed to
stay in the saddle while Rustler stood up and completed the course.
SA did better in the second round. Savvy and I kept the course in tact, and Lindsay got extra crowd support for a maneuver where he
nearly managed to keep a drum up with his hand whilst racing through the course. Ultimately, WA won the challenge, with Bill
Peadon from NSW taking the prize for the fastest round. SA came in fifth place, but the scores were tight.
I want to say a big thank you to the SA Central Branch for their financial support in helping us to get over there, and State Management Council for accepting our nomination to attend. It was great to see SA riders involved in such a big event for our breed. I also
want to give big shout out to all the SA supporters in the crowd that day, your cheers helped get us through unscathed!
