The photo is taken during our State Combined Driving Championships held at Peterborough, South Australia.
Combined Driving is the harness equivalent of three-day eventing. The three sections consist of a Dressage Phase, Cross Country with obstacles (pictured), then finishing off with a Speed Cones Driving competition (driving at speed through measured traffic cones with balls on top).
The sport is great fun. We train and compete with Easyboot Epics & go barefoot in between times. The ponies pictured are pure bred New Forest ponies and are full brothers.
