I couldnt pick just one! Thankyou for getting these absolutely priceless shots of our minis! And a huge thankyou to for taking the time to help the little tackers in their clinic! Also well done to our ballerina/fairys who where the best cattle anyone could ask for in our Mini Cut Out 😍

Also if I see anyone screenshotting or saving these images and nut purchasing them off Kathy, you are in BIG trouble!! We are super lucky to have her supply them to us. So if they are good enough to screenshot or save, then they are good enough to buy!

🏆 ARANDES CONTRACTING MINI TOP CUT OUT 🏆

Well I dont think Ive ever seen so many people on the spectator hill to support our littlest drafters! For those that dont quite unterstand whats going on here - Here is a little run down. Our minis (5-u/8yos) arent allowed to compete on a real cow yet. So we improvised! Thankyou to Luke, Rissole and Blake for taking one for the team and making 5 little girls dreams come true! Well done kiddos! Im sure this is the beginning of something great.

Well done to Ella Martin who did only just turn 5 12 days ago who took the win on Gunslinger with a big 24!

There was also a best presented prize which went to Lilah Griffiths!

Thankyou to Arandes Contracting for sponsoring and to The Back Paddock 3311 for donating the prize bags!

I honestly hope that all clubs take this on board - They are our up and coming drafters and to take 10 minutes out of the day to do something so special is really easy! And it puts the kids on cloud 9!
