The Remi Stud Young Rider Scholarship is an annual Scholarship and is awarded to a very deserving Young Rider who has the talent and dedication in either Dressage or Eventing, but needs financial assistance to purchase a horse of their dreams. Cheryl O'Brien from Remi Stud has put together a great team of supporters to help make this dream come true for one lucky young rider. Visit the Remi Stud Facebook Page.
This scholarship is an amazing opportunity for a young rider who has the dedication and talent, but not the financial means, to enter into the equestrian industry with support from a variety of supporters. The scholarship includes the ownership of a purpose bred weanling foal by Lauries As - one of the best performed Hanoverian stallions in Australia.
The Scholarship recipient will also receive a support package which includes feed from Prydes Easifeed; a saddle, saddle cloth and bridle from Edwards Saddleworld; 10 weeks training by Team Van Den Berge when the horse turns three years old; life registration with Equestrian Queensland; registration and merchandise from the Hanoverian Horse Society of Australia; legal support from Horseforce; show product from Dr Show; riding apparel from Belrock Equestrian; veterinary care from Westvets; transport from Manuel Equine Transport; and support from Equestrian Australia and the Brisbane CDI.
To be considered for the receipt of this amazing scholarship valued at over $30,000, riders should complete the application form below and submit it to Cheryl O'Brien at [email protected]
The Remi Stud Young Rider Scholarship inaugural winner, Isabella Wilkinson-McIntyre, has proved to be a very worthy Ambassador for this Scholarship, and during the past year has, in turn, supported other young riders through her dedication and encouragement, so that they can believe it is possible to attain their dreams too.
The 2014 winner was Alexander Barlow, an eventer from Yeppoon, Qld, and she was awarded Remi Liberty Belle S. Belle was broken in by Team Van Den Berge a few months ago, and has had a spell to grow in the paddock, but we are looking forward to seeing her at the Brisbane CDI this year as well as Livingstone – hopefully both under saddle!!
The 3rd winner in 2015 was Jordyn Faint from Londonderry, NSW, also an eventer, and she received Remi Fall Guy S. Jordyn has been able to compete this year on another horse, and she has been very successful, so Guy is in very good hands. He is expected to go under saddle later this year.
Last year’s winner was Tasmanian George Grover, who is absolutely delighted with his weanling, Remi Lord of the Vale S. Pete (as he is known) is growing extremely well on the lush pastures in Tassie, and we look forward to hearing of their progress as he matures in the next couple of years.
