CONGRATULATIONS MARTIN!

As we all suspected, Martin Larcombe did enough on his trip to Switzerland on July 4th competing at his second FEI CRI event to qualify for an application as a "WILDCARD" position for upcoming FEI Reining World Championships and the FEI World Reining Masters where he could represent Australian Reiners for the first time!   Now it is up to FEI to accept our Wildcard nomination for Martin to ride for Australia!!  Great Job Martin!!!
