We have teamed up with equestrian hub and their fantastic E-Zine publication Hub Vibes to showcase a rider of the month. Each month Hub Vibes will select a rider to appear in their popular magazine and also here on Filly and Co. Each rider will receive a personalised gift from Filly and Co.

Meet Thea….

Gun eventer, Thea Horsley, from the Southern Highlands in NSW is our September Young Rider of the Month.

Thea starting riding at the age of 4, and now at 17 years of age has her eyes set on competing at the Adelaide 2**.

Her current horse is Kelecyn Supernatural, a 12yo, 16.3hh, thoroughbred. She is coached by Sam Lyle. The best piece of advice Sam has given is “ride the opposite to what you feel” which helps Thea to adjust her riding for different horses on different days.

Thea is currently in year 12 and when she is not riding, she loves playing sport & cooking.

Thea is sponsored by Performance Saddlefits & Equine Bodyworx.

Head over to Hub Vibes to see Thea in the magazine and other great content.
