Australian Jumping Championships 2011 Schedule 2 Welcome to the Equestrian Australia 2011 National Jumping Championships.

This is the ﬁrst time that the Championships have been in held Dubbo and we thank Dubbo Showground for providing the venue.

Australian horses and riders have made an impression on the international scene over the last 12 months and it all starts right here at home. Whilst we have lost some quality horses to overseas buyers, we are proud that world class horses are being produced on our Australian circuit.

Thank you to all the riders, coaches, course designers, ofﬁcials, event organisers, volunteers, parents and grooms for making not only these championships but the whole the Australian Jumping circuit an exciting and competitive environment.

These championships decide the Australian Junior, Young Rider and Senior titles. I wish all competitors good luck for a successful show.

Edwena Mitchell and her team have worked tirelessly to put this event together, so please take the time to show her your appreciation.

Best of Luck

Grant Baldock CEO Equestrian Australia

Meanwhile his progeny here are creating a stir as they come of age to begin competing as well, with success stories in all Olympic disciplines. Visage returned to Australia last year, in time for the 2010 breeding season. Unfortunately an injury sustained inflight prevented him from being available for chilled cover. But he is back on deck for the 2011 season. Visage ticks all the breeding stallion boxes: excellent temperament and conformation, head-turning looks and consistent competitive success both here and in Europe. He has perfect technique, which is careful and scopey and brave, and he is passing his talents and looks on to his progeny. Before leaving for France a year ago, Visage ran 2nd in the World Cup class at Sale, with rider Christopher Burton competing in his first-ever showjumping World Cup. Earlier successes include: Champion of Champions at DSJWTS his first year in Australia; Champion Young Event Horse at Sydney Royal the following year; World Cup class placings at Sydney Royal and in Queensland.
