Cradle Mountain Chateau Tom Quilty Gold Cup - cancelled

History in the making.

For the first time in it's forty year history, the Cradle Mountain Chateau 40th Tom Quilty Cup Endurance ride has been cancelled mid event.

The ride started at midnight in steady rain, and as dawn broke conditions deteriorated. In driving rain, and cold winds, the horses began to find the going difficult, and there were several falls, fortunately with no injuries.

The advance motorcycle trail bike crew were unable to access parts of the fourth leg , and the four wheel drive vehicles were unable to establish checkpoints, or to access the track for safety and rescue work .

Faced with a deteriorating situation on the local weather radar, and many withdrawals at the end of the third leg , the organisers made the courageous decision to end the ride.

Horses already out on leg 4 were recalled as they approached the checkpoints. All horses who had completed the third leg (110k) were deemed to have completed ,as long as they passed the compulsory two hour represent to the vet panel.

The leading horses in each division, at the end of leg three, will be declared as winners.

Toft endurance has provisionally swept the prize pool, although no official results have yet been announced.

Quilty event remains true to its origins

THE Tom Quilty Gold Cup event has proven beyond a doubt that Australian horses are as tough as any in the world, according to event patron Ron Males.

Mr Males has been involved in the cup, which is now the national endurance riding championship, since its inception 40 years ago.

He worked with R. M. Williams and Tom Quilty in setting up the inaugural ride in 1966.

R. M. Williams wanted a race to see if Australian riders and their horses were as tough as American competitors in the 100-mile Tevis Cup.

Tom Quilty put up 1000 in prize money and Mr Males organised and marked out the course.

Mr Males has since competed in 21 events and holds the record for the most consecutive Tom Quilty silver belt buckles.

They are awarded on completion of the event within 24 hours.

"It's hard to think of a highlight," Mr Males said.

"But that first race, it was out of this world.

"Racing in Australia over 160 kilometres, which is 100 miles, was just unreal.

"But we did it, we succeeded."

Sheffield is the site of this year's Tom Quilty, which begins at midnight tomorrow.

It is also the site of another of Mr Males' personal highlights.

"Eighteen years ago at Sheffield I came in second on Chase Sadaqa and we won best condition, which is as prized as winning," he said.

"I've only just arrived, but from what I've seen this year's course looks great."

Riders rug up for Quilty event

LOGO:LANA BEST - EQUINE TIME * , Tuesday, 7 June 2005

Deviot's Jess Wilson will mount her Crabbet Arabian Kurrajong Zephyr just before midnight on Friday ready to ride into the freezing hills of Sheffield.

The 12-year-old mare, which Wilson has owned for less than a year, will be wearing a light all-purpose saddle, a simple bit or maybe even just a headstall, and her lightweight rider will be in thermal underwear "and at least five jumpers and a coat".

Both will be a little jumpy, breathing steamy nervous breath in the cold, night air.

And then, almost silently, they will trot away into the night, with just a head-torch to guide their way, on the first leg of the 160km journey that is the famous Tom Quilty Gold Cup Endurance Ride.

Quality field for Quilty

TWO world-class riders from the United Arab Emirates headline overseas entries for the Cradle Mountain Chateau Tom Quilty Gold Cup at Sheffield next month.

The Tom Quilty, Australia's premier equine endurance event, will be held over a challenging 160km course, starting at midnight on June 10.

Abdullah Kharis Ali Saeed, a former world record-holder, and Uousef Ahmed Al Bloushi will be the two Arab riders in a field of more than 120. There will also be five Japanese riders and one from the United States.

The Arabs, American and one of the Japanese will ride horses supplied by Toft Endurance from Queensland.

Ali Saeed has already competed in a Quilty, and is the first Middle East rider to get a Tom Quilty completion buckle when he placed seventh at the 2000 event.

He is ranked as one of the best endurance riders in the world.

In 2000, he won the inaugural 160km H.H. The President of the UAE Millennium Cup in the UAE, breaking the world record for the distance in a time of seven hours, 49 minutes, 13 seconds.

However according to Peter Toft, of Toft Endurance, who is supplying his mount Abdullah "will ride to suit the conditions", ensuring he is a serious contender on the Sheffield circuit.

His mount, BBP Electra Murdoch is now ranked Australia's No.1 endurance horse.

Murdoch carried Toft in the Tom Quilty Gold Cup in South Australia last year, where they won first heavyweight and heavyweight best conditioned.

Al Bloushi finished third in the FEI national championships on his first trip to Australia last year.

Three-time winner Victorian Meg Wade and last year's joint winner Joyce Corbett, of Queensland, will also participate.

Mohammed?s horse claims award

23 May 2005


QUEENSLAND ? An Australian based endurance horse owned by General Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and UAE Minister of Defence, scooped the coveted award for Best Condition in the 160-km 3-Star FEI ride at Gatton in Queensland recently.


His eight-year old Arabian gelding, Jordanvale Red Cloud, ridden by Kristie McGaffin, a member of the Australian slver medal team, narrowly missed winning the ride by a mere nose.

The crews and spectators saw two riders emerge out of the darkness holding hands as they rode the last few metres. In true racing fashion the grey mare China Doll stuck her nose out as she crossed the finish line to claim first place for her rider and owner Meg Wade.

Mule stuns horse crowd

Taj Mahal easily stands out among his competition.

And it's not just because he hasn't been out of the top 10 in his three years of 50-55 mile endurance races.

The 17-hand, 8-year-old thoroughbred mule is a rarity among a field dominated by Arabians.

"Some of the other riders are not happy with me, especially the Arabian people," says Taj's owner Doris Roesch, who has eight of her own Arabians.

At one race, Roesch stuck with a group of riders near the front and could tell that one woman in particular was extremely annoyed. As the woman's horse tired, Taj Mahal passed her. When they got to the watering hole, the other rider came up from the behind, screaming, "Get that mule out of the water tank! My horse won't drink with him in there!"

?GOLDEN? Decisions ?. (?)

January 2005

On Thursday, January 27, HH Sheik Hazza Bin Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nayan (UAE) won the FEI Endurance World Championship 2005, 160 km in Dubai. He was riding Hachim, FEI Passport No ESP 02734.

The MCP (Medication Control Programme) Team selected Hachim for sampling as well as 9 other horses participating in the championship.

Friday, January 28: Gulfnews praised Sheik Hazza Bin Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nayan?s ?golden decision? to switch horses shortly before the championship. He was supposed to ride Shahdon, formerly ridden by two-time world champion Valerie Kanavy. Instead he opted for Hachim, the horse he rode to victory in Bahrain. The championship was ? according to Gulfnews and Khaleej Times ? the first-ever 160 km ride for Hachim.

Saturday, January 29: About 15 minutes before the official prize giving ceremony, held at Lisaili Fort off the Dubai-Al Ain highway, the French Team was informed that 2nd placed Barbara Lissarague/ Georgat will be declared the individual winner of the FEI World Endurance Championship instead of Sheik Hazza, because traces of performance enhancing drugs seem to have been found in the sampling of his horse Hachim.

Sheik Hazza, who was present for the closing ceremony, left midway after being informed about this decision (according to gulfnews).

Barbara Lissarague/ Georgat (FRA) was then awarded the gold medal and declared world champion.

Edaran Endurance Classic 2005

Kuala Lumpur, 3 May 2005

Edaran Endurance Classic 2005

Edaran Digital Systems Berhad To Hold Third Endurance Classic Event at
ar-Raudhah Equine Centre, Kuang, Selangor, Malaysia.

Following two successful endurance events held in 2003 and 2004, Edaran Digital Systems Berhad (EDARAN), a Company involved in Systems Integration and Smart Technology Solutions in Malaysia, has scheduled the third endurance competition, Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 in May this year. Last year?s Edaran Endurance Classic had edged up a notch when it achieved FEI-CEI** certification for its 120Km Ride, a commendable achievement after just one competition event at ar-Raudhah in 2003. This year, the Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 will further step up the challenge for participants with a full 160KM ride as the main competition event. A second competition event is set at the 85Km distance and a third at a 40Km distance. A non-competitive event for Young Riders is set at a 15Km distance.

Edaran Endurance Classic 2005, as with the first two Endurance Classic events, will be held at the tranquil and picturesque setting of ar-Raudhah Equine Centre in Kuang, Selangor, just 40 minutes north of Kuala Lumpur , Malaysia.

ar-Raudhah Equine Centre and its surrounding region offer challenging but interesting trails through secondary jungles, lush wooded areas, gently undulating to hilly terrain, oil palm plantations, rubber estates and village settlements as well as pockets of water crossings. Malaysia?s endurance landscape which generally reflects Malaysia?s out-of-city topography, contrasts well with the desert landscape of the Middle East countries or rugged outbacks of Australia where endurance riding, in the two countries have become a sophisticated and well developed sport.

For the first time, Edaran Endurance Classic has opened the competition to international participants with the aim of creating greater international awareness of Malaysia as an endurance riding venue as well as to further elevate the status of the sport in Malaysia. The Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 anticipates Riders from United States of America, United Arab Emirates, Australia and Germany. From within the country, at least 100 participants including the HRH (Duli Yang Maha Mulia) Al-Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin of Terengganu, an avid and keen endurance rider, are expected to take part in this year?s competition.

The Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 will stretch over three days from 20 May till 22 May, starting with veterinary checks of the horses and technical briefing to participants on Friday, 20 May.

Organising Chairman, Dato? Hj Abdul Hamid Mustapha:

?Endurance riding is a relatively under-exposed equestrian sport in Malaysia. Compared to the more visible and popularly promoted equine sports of Polo, Dressage and Show Jumping, endurance riding has yet to gain awareness among our younger Malaysians. Edaran Endurance Classic was initiated with the aim of promoting and developing the sport to a level where it can bring tangible benefits to the country and to our potential endurance sportsmen and women,? said Dato? Haji Abdul Hamid Mustapha, a Director of Edaran Digital Systems Berhad (EDARAN) and Organising Chairman of the Event.

Recognising the sport?s potential we have, with the support and help of Equestrian Association of Malaysia, introduced for the first time, an event for Young Riders. The Young Riders? 15Km Ride will serve to encourage endurance enthusiasts to pick up the sport early and grow with it. Endurance riding is one equestrian sport that holds tremendous potential for Malaysia. We believe it is one sport in which Malaysians can excel in, given that we have ideal sites and venues for training in the sport. Apart from that, we also believe that endurance riding can contribute significantly to sports tourism,? added Dato? Hamid Mustapha.

The Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 is organized with the support of the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Ministry of Tourism, Malaysia. Other supporting organizations include Equestrian Association of Malaysia, Malaysian Endurance Riding Society, Majlis Ekuin Malaysia, TV3 as official broadcaster, Skuadron Istiadat Berkuda, ATM, Unit Berkuda Polis Diraja Malaysia, Universiti Putra Malaysia Fakulti Veterinar, Jabatan Bomba dan Penyelamat , Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur and Carisbrook as Official Apparel.

EDARAN ENDURANCE CLASSIC FEI-CEI ***160KM

A More Challenging Distance For Participants

The Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 will be held from 20-22 this May at ar-Raudhah Equine Centre, Kuang, Selangor. The Event marks the third Endurance Competition organized by Edaran Digital Systems Berhad. The inaugural competition event was held in 2003 with distances of 80Km and 60Km. At the second Edaran Endurance Classic in 2004, the event achieved CEI-FEI** recognition for its 120Km event , a commendable achievement after just one competition event at ar-Raudhah Equine Centre.

FEI -CEI*** 160 Km Elevated Ride

This year?s competition pushes up the challenge for participants with a full FEI-CEI*** 160Km Ride. The 160 Km Ride will be made up of six phases of 35 Km, 35 Km, 25 Km, 25 Km, 25 Km and a final loop of 15 Km. This competition category will however be qualified as an ?elevated ride? which in principal allows contestants of this event to opt to continue and finish the race at a distance of 160Km or choose to complete at a distance of 120Km. This decision has to be determined by contestants upon reaching the 95th Km distance of the race.

85Km and 40Km Events

A second event is set at the 80Km distance and a third event for new endurance enthusiasts is set at the 40 Km distance.

The 85Km Ride will in turn be broken into three phases of 35 Km, 25Km and a final phase of 25Km. The 40Km Ride will comprise two phases which will be a first 25Km followed by a second phase of 15Km.

Compulsory Halts

The end of each phase marks a compulsory halt for veterinary inspection of their horses. The horses will be checked to determine their heart rate, gut sound, hydration level, lameness and overall physical condition. Horses that do not pass the stringent vet checks within the stipulated time are eliminated from the race as being ?Not Fit To Continue?.

For the first time, Edaran Endurance Classic has opened the event to international participation and riders are anticipated from United States of America, Germany, Australia and United Emirates of Arabia. A total of 100 local riders including HRH, Duli Yang Maha Mulia Tuanku Al-Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin of Trengganu, are expected to participate in this year?s event.

The Competition Trails

Competitors of the Edaran Endurance Classic 2005 will be riding through a combination of six different trails ranging from distances of 15 Km to 35 Km trails. Trails will include those within and around ar-Raudhah Equine Centre. Trails outside of ar-Raudhah will take riders through surrounding village settlements, oil palm plantations and rubber estates as well as onto flat tarmac roads.

Encik Mohamed Din bin Mat, the competition?s lead course designer said, ?The competition this year will pose more challenging for riders as the distance is not only longer but involves night riding as well. We nonetheless believe that the trails will proof to be exciting, challenging and enjoyable for the riders.?

Funding problems has forced the organising committee of the FEI Emirates International Endurance Open European Championships to pull the plug on the event

Britain will not host the FEI Emirates International Endurance Open European Championships, which were planned to take place at Alfred's Tower on the Stourhead Estate in early August. The International Equestrian Federation (FEI) is now looking at rescheduling the championships somewhere else.

The organising committee decided to cancel the event yesterday (Monday 9 May), after consulting with the FEI, the British Equestrian Federation and title sponsor Emirates International Endurance Racing (EIER). Had the event gone ahead it would have been the second time in the championships' history that it had been held in Britain.
