The Australian Quarters Horse Association also offered incentives to the Open Challenge horses and its no surprise that Hardy “ GI M Hard Q-90093 ” took out the Evolution Mining Open Challenge , with both Highest Placed Registered Quarter Horse for the Open Challenge & Breeder of the Highest Placed Registered Quarter Horse for the Classic Challenge going to JND Ventures .
Hardy has a great History with Cloncurry , having won the Classic as a 3 year old in 2019 and then going on the win the Inaugural Ron Wall Memorial Derby Challenge in 2021 . Definitely a horse to look for year after year .
We would like to thank everyone who headed to Cloncurry and joined us for the 40th Anniversary of the Cloncurry Stockman ' s Challenge & Campdraft .
A big thank you to everyone who helps to ensure our event ran as smoothly as possible over the week - from our Committee Members , competitors , gate openers , backyard crew , timers , scorers , announcers , security , bar staff , food vendors and of course our fantastic cattle / stock contractors .
