Young horse riders put through their paces at Equestrian Champs

More than 700 horses and their young riders are being put through their paces at this week's Secondary School Equestrian Championships. Students from the Far North to Southland are competing at two concurrent events in Christchurch and Taupō. The number of students entering the champs has more than doubled since the event began three years ago.
