ith Leanne taking out the runner Mother and daughter duo up 2020 ABHA Championships Open Division – 4th Division Leanne and Madison Caban, on ‘Mornin Mohawk Q-82903.’ Madison took home 2 trophy saddles for her wins in the 2020 hailing from Emerald, QLD, ABHA Championships Junior WDivision - 1st Division riding ‘Peptos Jackson Roc have both had significant Q-67111’, during which she averaged 15.826 seconds per run, as well as the 2020 ABHA Championships successes at the Cap Coast Open Division - 1st Division riding ‘Smart Like Cooper Q-70475’, also held over 2 rounds. Madison’s average to take the win was 16.478 sec. Madison also placed 5th ABHA Finals this year. overall on ‘Bid For Lil Acre Q-95888’ in the 2020 ABHA QLD Championships Classic, which is for horses six years old or under. Madison had stellar results in each round, running a 17.541 in Round 1, while she ran a 17.062 in Round 2, bringing her average to 17.3015 sec.

Leanne attributes her love for horses to her parents, and says “I will be forever grateful that they encouraged my passion for horses.” Growing up, Leanne’s mum always loved horses but never had one of her own. When she met Leanne’s Dad, he had a team of stock horses for work, so she had the opportunity to learn to ride. “When they married, they went into the trucking business, and Dad dabbled in a few racehorses, and I rode trackwork for him. Mum and Dad gave me the best opportunities that they could afford for me to ride in Pony Club, Showjumping, and Campdrafting etc.,” Leanne recalls.

Leanne always enjoyed the sporting events in Pony Club and giving the horses their gallops when she rode trackwork. “When I got into the sport of Rodeo after completing school, I was still living in Julia Creek, North Qld, and there wasn’t a huge number of events. But when the Northern Run of Pro Rodeo’s came around, I just started with them. I remember seeing all the travelling Cowgirls for the first time and made it a goal to mix it with them one day. It was not only the speed of Barrel Racing that I fell in love with, but everything Rodeo was about,” said Leanne.

Leanne’s hard work and dedication have seen her bring home many titles over the years, including: • 1995 APRA/WPRA All Round Champion. • 3 x CRCA All Round Champion. • Many circuit titles and NFR qualifications both with APRA and ABCRA. • 3 x ATRA National Barrel Racing Champion.

“In 2014, I was invited by Mr Yu of Bau Huo, Qingdao, China, to spend a month at his equine complex to train riders and horses in Barrel Racing. In 2015, I was a guest presenter at the QSEC Horse and Home Show to share my knowledge in the sport. My all-time highlight, however, is breaking the Australian Barrel Racing record in 1993 at Mt Isa Rodeo and holding that record for six years.” With a resume like this, it’s no wonder Leanne is a Clinician and Horse trainer.

“Coming into this event I really wasn’t expecting much at all. I had only competed at some local jackpots on Jackson and even though Hammer ‘aka Smart Like Cooper Q-70475’ was fit due to being roped on I had not got to run him all year. I also had to retire my great old horse ‘Decker’ so it was tough. My confidence going into the weekend was low as I couldn’t practice due to rain and I had been ill. After my 1st exhibition run on Hammer I was still worried as he was all over the place. I gave him another exhibition run then we pulled it together. There is no better feeling winning on horses you have trained yourself. Dad had trained Hammer into an awesome rope horse but I patterned him on the barrels. I also trained Biddy (Bid for a Lil Acre Q-95888) who I placed 5th in the Futurity on.”

“Dad purchased Hammer from Jason Leitch about 5 years ago. He had been trained in cutting but didn’t make the grade so was being used as a turn back horse. He is very quirky and doesn’t like too much affection. After taking out the Junior 1D saddle on Jackson, who my mum trained, I was blown away to win the open 1D. It was certainly the cherry on top.

No way in the world did I think I had a chance against more than 300 riders, to come out on top. I’m thankful for everyone that helped me get to where I am including my parents and sponsors, because nothing would be possible without them. There were so many great Maddie & all her wonderful prizes

competitors and I really didn’t think I had a high chance of Leanne and Mornin Mohawk Q-82903 October 2020 QLD championships even placing.”

“The best advice I have received is just to go out and have fun and what will be will be. I look up to my mum as she is the one that got me started and is always in my corner. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Have fun with it!”

“I love watching Lisa Lockhart and Hailey Kinsel, and in 2019 I got to watch them both live at the PRCA World Finals in Las Vegas. I also got to see Lisa compete at the Elite Finals in Dallas, Texas, in 2016. I got to go down into the arena, meet with her and get her autograph.”

Maddie believes having a positive mindset, a lot of hard work and always staying humble are the keys to her success. “Oh, and of course, Mum and Dad and the opportunity they have given me to work with and ride some great horses.”

Maddie would like to acknowledge and thank her great sponsors at “Rydweld in Townsville, who have really looked after me over the years, and Coolhorse helps me out with equipment and ropes. I want to thank the organisers of the Qld Championships and all the great sponsors.”

Future goals for this young competitor are to win a junior APRA title in Barrel racing, then work towards an Open Title. Maddie would also like to compete in America one day at a high level. “I’m not in competition with anybody but myself’. ‘It’s about competition and having fun with friends.” F
