Well done Katrina Silk and Bensons Quantum Leap (Floyd)
Amazing set of photos in x country, dressage and show jumping!
Katrina’s comments below.

Thanks to the committee and volunteers of Albury Wodonga International Horse Trials 2024. Floyd was a superstar in all 3 phases. 🤩 🦄 Best dressage test to date (not reflected in his mark 🙄) and double clear just adding time to a challenging 2 * xc course. Purchased too many photos as always! Sorry not sorry.. 🤣
Thanks also to Sarah Adams, best stable manager, so incredibly helpful 🙏 Thanks also to Denise Rogan and Tallara Cameron for all their coaching and support 🙏

It was lovely to finally meet Katrina Silk and catch up with Bensons Quantum Leap (Floyd) and hear about his latest antics. Katrina has done a wonderful job bringing on Floyd over the past few years and now eventing him at the 2* level.
He has finally grown into his big ears and knees and at 17.2 hh (plus maybe??) and with his flashy blaze, he looks amazing.
Looking forward to seeing how this team will go in the future with the great tutoring from both Tallara Cameron and Denise Rogan.
Other photos are at Sydney Eventing 2* a few weeks ago.

Do you have a need for help with your young horses?

Or outdoor maintenance or pet care. I have had a French couple (25 yrs old) reach out to me asking about any work in the horse and showjumping work spaces.
Below is their email to me.
If you are interested to find out more about them, just contact them directly from Geoff's email details; [email protected]

Hello,
We are a French couple, Laura and Geoffrey, both 25 years old. We both worked for 3 months on a horse farm, specifically Kingstar in Dalswinton (NSW). We loved it and gained a lot of knowledge and skills from the experience.
That's why we're contacting you today, because we'd like to repeat the experience!
We are available from April 29, 2024.

Laura has been riding since the age of 7 and holds a Galop 6. She competes in horseball (French champion title in 2013 and French vice-champion in 2016) but has also done show jumping during 2 years. Used to riding young horses, she can adapt to any mount.

And I'd be a great help with outdoor maintenance and pet care. I regularly accompany Laura to her training sessions and matches at weekends.
Please let us know if you are currently recruiting backpackers, or if you have any knowledge of labour market research.

Thank you in advance,

We look forward to hearing from you,
Best regards,
Geoffrey and Laura
