Mother-of-two Cindy Marsh made it a double, winning back-to-back championships in barrel racing in 2013 and 2014. Her meet times at the National Rodeo Council of Aus- tralia (NRCA) ladies barrel race event at Dalby show- grounds on November 7 and 8 were 15.01 seconds and 15.11 seconds. Marsh said both she and Sue (a six-year-old quarter horse gelding named after the song ‘A Boy Named Sue’) just clicked and worked together and were “an awesome tea m”. Their feat was even more remarkable given Sue bucked Cindy off in January and left her with a broken leg. “I was out of action for a few months but had my first rodeo back in Marrabel on October 1 and came second,” she said. “It comes with the territory. I’ve been doing rodeo races my whole life. I also had a broken shoulder four years ago.” She said becoming a rodeo champion took hard work, dedication, courage and “you have to get the right horse.” “You need him to go as fast as he can but be thinking with you,” she said. The 40-year-old said the buckles proclaiming her an Australian rodeo champion made it all worth it. “These buckles are what you strive for.” continued page 4

Earlier this year the 19-year-old won the Australian High School Rodeo Association championship for breakaway roping, which qualified her for both the NRCA event and a spot in the world high school rodeo championships in the United States. The teenager travelled to the United States in July to compete and her time of 2.4 seconds in the second round of the breakaway roping event earned her a coveted United States college scholarship in Oklahoma. “I’ll be joining their rodeo team and competing in college rodeos,” De Spirt said. “The scholarship is for four years if I like and I’ll probably leave next year. I’m most looking forward to furthering my career in rodeoing.” She said while it was an amazing opportunity, she’d have to leave behind her two horses (14-year-old Blue and seven-year-old Pozzi) and SANTA COMES TO TOWN purchase new horses over there.

After much hard work, we’re proud to say we’re more prepared than ever for bushfire season. Visit powercor.com.au to find out more.
