From the racetrack to the Aachen 2026 World Champs! ๐Ÿ‡๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›

Sophia Hill and Humble Glory affectionally known as Hughie have shown just what an off-the-track Thoroughbred can achieve, finishing an incredible 14th at the FEI World Eventing Championships against 88 of the worldโ€™s best combinations. Hughie also produced the fastest clear showjumping round of the day!

Hughieโ€™s journey is a wonderful reminder of the athleticism, courage and versatility of OTT Thoroughbreds, and the incredible second careers that can await them after racing.

๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ๐ŸŒ Flying the flag for Australia on the world stage!

A huge congratulations to Queenslandโ€™s Emma Flegman, who has been appointed to the Ground Jury for the FEI Eventing European Championship for Young Riders & Juniors, taking place at Segersjรถ, Sweden, from 26โ€“30 August 2026.

Emma will serve on the Ground Jury for the Junior competition, with responsibilities spanning all three phases โ€” dressage, cross-country and showjumping โ€” playing a key role in one of the sportโ€™s premier youth events.

Itโ€™s a wonderful recognition of Emmaโ€™s dedication, expertise and journey through eventing officiating. Having competed to 4* level in eventing and Grand Prix in dressage, Emma began judging in 2007 before progressing through the national levels and earning her FEI Level 3 Eventing qualification in 2025.

Now, she takes her place alongside some of the sportโ€™s most experienced international officials.

As Emma says, โ€œI am excited to witness the future of eventing, being part of their journey as I progress in mine.โ€

We couldnโ€™t be prouder to see another Australian official representing our sport at the highest level. ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›

Congratulations Emma, and best of luck for what promises to be an incredible championship in Sweden! Read more here https://www.equestrian.org.au/news/australian-official-emma-flegman-appointed-ground-jury-fei-european-championships-sweden

Incident reporting in improving. ๐Ÿ‘ Every incident report helps make our sport safer.

We're seeing more members reporting incidents than ever before, particularly outside of competition. That's exactly what we want to see. Better reporting doesn't necessarily mean more incidents are happening โ€” it means we're building a stronger understanding of where risks exist so we can better support our members and continue improving safety across our sport.

Why does it matter?
โœ… It helps us support injured members.
โœ… It identifies hazards before they cause harm.
โœ… It shows whether our safety initiatives are making a difference.

Whether you're at a competition, training, coaching or riding at home or your local club, if something happens, please report it. Every report - big or small - provides valuable information that helps create a safer environment for everyone.

Together, we're building a stronger safety culture across equestrian sport. ๐Ÿ’™

When we know better, we can do better. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿด

Understanding horse welfare starts with knowing what to look for.

The Five Domains Model is a science-based framework that helps assess a horse's welfare across all aspects of its lifeโ€”from nutrition and environment to health, behaviour and mental wellbeing. It's a practical tool that can support better decision-making, no matter your role in our sport.

The five domains of welfare for FEI sport horsesโ€™ course is now available on FEI Campus, giving riders, coaches, officials and horse owners the opportunity to deepen their understanding of equine welfare and put welfare-first principles into practice.

Explore the course via FEI Campus or visit our website to access the link.
