My name is Genevieve and I currently
live in Orange, NSW.
A
s a mixed practice veterinarian I
live a very busy life and I use horse-
riding as my downtime and stress
outlet. I bought my horse ‘Stuart
Little’ (Playboys Xmas Cat) from a
friend 2 years ago and started back into trail
riding. He was nicknamed that being only
14.1hh!
I enjoy trail riding on weekends in the bush and
occasionally go to the Snowy Mountains riding
with friends. For the past two years I have been
lucky enough to complete Riley’s Ride, as part
of the Riley’s Ride crew, being their on-ride
Veterinarian.
This annual ride is held to commemorate Jack
Riley’s life, who is reputed to be the inspiration
which led to the penning of “The Man From
Snowy River”, Banjo Paterson’s epic ballad.
