Calling all Horse Lovers…
The ‘Night of the Horse’
IS SET TO BE AUSTRALIA’S BIGGEST NIGHT OF
EQUINE ENTERTAINMENT, EXCELLENCE AND EDUCATION.
W
ith a list of world first stunts in his
holster, show director Dave Manchon
is bringing an all-star line-up of horses
and trainers to the AELEC arena in
Tamworth with a never before seen production that
is set to make you catch your breath as you watch
this World Class Production.
Dave Manchon’s exciting style of Equine Arena
Shows are recognised as providing some of the
most exciting and talked about moments seen in
the equine industry today. With its own impressive
record of popular performances the Rooftop Express
Show is widely recognized as the “event highlight”
wherever it goes.
Building on this success Dave has invited a group
of Blue Ribbon trainers together with the simple
aim of showing people what is possible with horses.
Throughout the night Rob Leach (2018 Warwick
Stallion Draft Winner), Brett Parbery (12 time
Australian Dressage Champion and World Equestrian
Games rider), Warren Backhouse (Highest Reining
Australia money earning trainer $500,000 and
counting) and Dave Manchon (Rooftop Express) will
open up their training playbooks with their horses and
talk candidly about horses, moments, philosophies
and people that have helped build their careers.
The Night of the Horse will also enable its audience to
experience the variety and adrenaline of a fast-paced
Wild West Show that features 58 horses throughout
the production. There will be something for everyone
with bulls and brahmans, donkeys and ducks high on
the agenda of family entertainment.
