The riders competed in the morning and afternoon pole bending and racing competitions which expected them to be as fast as they could in the arena to beat a time record.
The manager of The Ranch Equestrian Centre, Jaili Shearer told Polokwane Observer that the NHBA and Coca-Cola barrel racing show takes place twice a year at The Ranch, and once in the Hoedspruit area.
“We hosted a successful barrel racing qualifier and we see that this discipline of horse sports will grow as it is very interactive with spectators and showed a lot of camaraderie. Well done to all the riders, they’ve showcased their talents really well, along with their well trained horses that did well too. Thank you to everyone who participated, see you at the next one,” Shearer said.
