EA MCP Swabbing Steward Course - Northern Territory

Last weekend, Equestrian Northern Territory (ENT) in conjunction with the Equestrian Australia (EA) delivered the Medication Control Swabbing Steward Accreditation Course with EA National Medication Control Officer, Dr. Penny Dow

Penny took candidates: Kezia Pruick, Karen Duminski and Tanya Reynolds through theory classroom activities on the Saturday followed by live practice on the Sunday at Freds Pass Reserve having the opportunity to put their newly found skills to the test with the selection of horses at the Darwin Dressage Club Event.

The candidates did not waste a moment of Penny’s expertise and experience.  With almost 20 years of veterinary experience involving both medication control within the equestrian disciplines and the racing industry, Penny has acquired vast knowledge and hands-on experience in these areas.

Thank you to Danila Lochrin for ensuring the weekend ran smoothly.

Other Refresher/Promotion courses for Swabbing Stewards will be held around Australia throughout 2022. 

Please keep an eye on the Official’s calendar in the next few months.
