Triequithon brings eventing and its off the track thoroughbreds to the heart of the city and the general racegoer
The Magic Millions Triequithon is the first competition of the year and will be held at Doomben Racecourse, Brisbane on 2nd April. The list of riders is headed by Queensland based Olympian Rebel Morrow who will no doubt give her all in an attempt to win the $10,000 prize pool, of which $4,500 goes to the winner
The horses competing must be off the track thoroughbreds currently qualified to compete at 1* level eventing. The current list of riders and horses is;
Kate Sexton riding What About Billy
McKeely Elliott riding Sir Duke
Finn-Patrick McCoy riding Cosmic
Timari Lau riding Griffo
Naomi Burto riding Flying Gerry
Matthew Gaske riding Bang Bang Boy
Natasha Gunston riding Curly Spring
Brittney Young riding Mountain Poet
Katie Gorell riding Super Racer
Mandy Radecker riding Rebounded
Sheridan Sullivan riding As We Go By
Rebel Morrow riding Mr De Lago
As with previous events held in Victoria, the three phases will take place between scheduled races with Dressage taking place between Races 1-3, the Cross Country between Races 3-5 and the Show Jumping in reverse order between Races 6-8
Victorian fans of the innovative and lucrative Triequithon concept need not despair as organiser Paul Chow is hoping that there will be other events around Australia including one in Melbourne later in the year
