WELCOME TO THE MCDOWELL'S AUSTRALIAN BRUMBY CHALLENGE 2020!
Commencing with Brumby pick up on Sunday 21st of June 2020.
Finals to be held at EQUITANA Melbourne, 19th to the 22nd November 2020.
The only event of its kind in Australia, partnered with McDowell's Herbals and EQUITANA Melbourne 2020 to bring a bigger and better event!
The McDowell's Australian Brumby Challenge takes totally wild Brumbies, passively trapped as part of an ongoing management program, from the High Country of Victoria and Southern New
South Wales. These tough survivors are partnered with professional and non professional horse trainers for 150 days. In the Ridden Challenge, Brumbies aged four and older are saddle trained.
Our Champions for 2020 will be announced after the Freestyle class and all Brumbies who are not being retained by their trainers will then be auctioned to approved and registered bidders on the final day of EQUITANA – this is your chance to learn about and maybe even take home a special part of our Australian Heritage!
Note:
With the ever changing conditions around COVID and the cancellation of EQUITANA Melbourne this year we are investigating alternatives for the finals and will update everyone nearer the time.
