2010 'Dressage with Altitude' Bradgate Park Indoor Arena 19-21 February

Cathie Drury-Klein, Thursday, 26 November 2009

"Dressage with Altitude"

Fri 19, Sat 20 & Sun 21 February 2010

"Bradgate Park" Indoor Arena, Malabar Road, Orange

Bradgate Park definately became the Dressage hub of the central west as competitors rolled in from all over the state to compete at the 2nd Dressage with Altitude "Boutique European style dressage event"

Only six months down the track from the first successful event at Bradgate Park the competition had moved from 2 days to 3 to cater for the increase in competitors.The word had definately spread that this is an event not to be missed as 17 of NSW's top GP riders proved by entering for the event. The pituresque property with its world class indoor arena lent itself along with perfect weather to provide an event that left all competitors with a smile on their face as they departed and a "we'll be back". Some great scores were recorded over the weekend with Glennis Barrey on Classico II tipping Heath Ryan in the Goldin Big Tour Championship while Rozzie Ryan on Olivier Bunns GV Bullwinkle took out the Goldin Small Tour Championship with Ashlea Day on CP Perelous taking Reserve.

The Taste Orange Cocktail Party was a sellout a week before the event and the evening crowd enjoyed sipping Vale Creek Wine and wonderful food supplied by renowned Orange Caterer Edwena Mitchell. The Mezzanine level became abuzz and provided the Freestyle riders with atmosphere usually only experienced at major events held in Sydney or Melbourne. An added feature to the evening was the interviewing of Grand Prix Freestyle riders as they left the arena by well known dressage personality Roger Fitzhardinge as they were handed a glass of champers by Bunty Thompson (Australia's first Olympic team member 1956).

On Saturday evening and Sunday morning spectators got to view some of the Bradgate Park purpose bred young warmblood stock on display in the indoor.

Thank you to our sponsors over the weekend and special thanks to Bradgate Park owners John & Bev Healey, the staff of Bradgate Park our judges and volunteers and of course our competitors.
