TASHA'S BATTLE - 2005 YOUTH CAMP

Tasha waged her own little war with Lara at the recent youth Camp. Lara's an old campaigner that hasnt been out of the paddock for many years, however we decided to give her a go to see if she would be suitable for Natasha to show in the future youth classes. Lara had other ideas about coming out of retirement much to the amusement of all of the onlookers and much frustration to Tasha. The pictures below tell the story from Tasha receiving her instuction and coaching (and waving proudly to Mum), to her then trying to give Lara the message and finally reaching the end of the camp. These moments were captured by Leslie Cornford and we sincerely thank her for them. We have now returned Lara to her favourite spot under the trees in the paddock as you can well imagine!!!
