Team Coolmore / Peachester Celebrates after big AJTL Win

The long-awaited final AJTL event for 2021 finally came together at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre yesterday – and what a competition it was! After a very interrupted season courtesy of COVID and state border closures, it was with much excitement that we finally saw the brightly-clad riders walk the course yesterday afternoon planning their strategy for the competition ahead.

Nine teams took on the challenge for this event and all but one of the teams had the benefit of 4 combinations and therefore a drop-score, but even so, there wouldn’t have been a rider that entered the arena yesterday that didn’t feel the pressure of wanting to do their absolute best for their team. Each of these teams also had at least one Under 25 rider – a huge and somewhat daunting experience for these less experienced competitors.
