Sponsored Rider of the Month- April 2021- Bronte Dagg

Introducing Sponsored Rider Bronte Dagg!

We are so humbled to have Bronte apart of our Supa-licious team. Bronte is currently competing at the Sydney Royal Show. We wish Bronte all the best for the 2021 season.

About me:

I am 17 years old, and I am a show horse rider from Armidale NSW, my horse’s show name is EBL Lust, her stable name is Lust. I have competed at many royals and grand National qualifiers around all of Australia, I have qualified for Grand Nationals every year for the last 7 years, qualifying through Show Horse Council events. I have been champion rider at Brisbane Royal both under 12 and under 17 and won my novice rider at Sydney Royal when I was only 11. My horse has competed in many Childs and open classes having much success, and recently qualifying twice for the 2021 Grand National as well as being accepted into this years Sydney Royal. I have also been the national champion high school show rider and national champion high school show horse team member at the national interschool championships in 2019. My long term goals for the future would be to enter the leading rein world and invest my time in a young and up and coming lead rein hunter pony, and compete this pony at the Grand National. Through COVID, competition has been limited but this has given me the opportunity to work on some young ponies I had at home and has enabled me to spend time with my own horse developing new skills. This year I hope to achieve many of my goals, including the investment into a leading rein pony, I also wish to have some success at the Grand National, whether it just be to complete a workout without error or to take home the top spot. I love to Feed my horse and my friends horses my Supa-licious treats as they love love them and it’s a great reward after a long days riding!

Sponsored Rider for February- Chelsea Webb

Sponsored Rider for February- Chelsea Webb

We are so proud to have Chelsea as our Junior Sponsored Rider. Chelsea has been apart of our sponsored team for many years and it has been a pleasure watching her grow and continue her passion in equestrian.

My name is Chelsea Webb and I have been an Ambassador for Supa-licious for roughly 5 years!

I am 11 years old, I compete in Showing and I have a pony named Richdale Patriot aka Fire. He has been very successful and we have competed at so many shows, he taught me everything I know about showing, I got him when I was 4 years old and started showing him straight away. We have been to The Grand Nationals in Sydney and to Ekka and to Horse of The Year Shows. I retired him last year and he lives on our farm, even though he is retired he is still the most high maintenance pony we own! He takes more time to look after than all of our competition horses! And I am sure he gets more Supa-licious than any of the others too!! Because when you see his face, well how can you resist that face!
For Christmas I got my new dream horse a black galloway named Yeoway Songbird aka Lego! He is amazing to ride but a bit of a brat to handle on the ground! Luckily I have treats to bribe him into behaving himself and then he is a dream! After every ride he gets his treats and a head rub. It’s his routine and he loves it. It’s my way of saying thank you to him for being so much fun to ride. We have only competed at one show so far and we qualified for The Grand Nationals which was so exciting and I’m very grateful to own such a beautiful horse.
We also have one other very special team member her name is Bamborough Ari. Ari is owned by our friend Jill and I am so lucky to be riding her this year. We are training really hard at home and I can’t wait to get into the ring with her and see what we can do! She is sooo special and is my most comfortable horse to ride on my team by far!
I love being sponsored by Supalicious but I think my horses love it even more!! It is good to give them a yummy treat that is also healthy for them, my mum is very strict on what they get fed.

See you at the shows!!
Chelsea, Fire, Lego and Ari!
