Chris Holmes on
Jaded Potential Q-78405 - aka Tag
having supported me through it all. Mum has
taken me everywhere I had to go, and my Dad
and younger brother, Rylan, have always been
there for me!’
Reining is definitely Chris’ favourite event.
He loves the detail in the manoeuvres and
appreciates the training, connection and
understanding between the horse and rider.
His future QH goal, once he completes his
University Degree and gets his work life in
order, is to get back into Reining on a more
serious level. At present, Chris is working
part-time at Horseland, and studying at
Swinburne University, in Croydon. He has
also recently been offered a Plumbing
Apprenticeship.
