 Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:59): Healesville local Bridget Murphy and her horse Macey are competing in the para-equestrian dressage in their first Paralympic Games come September. This is such a great effort. Bridget is an experienced rider, having joined pony club as a kid, being a member of adult riders and starting para-dressage in 2018. I have watched Bridget as she has coached younger riders, and she is truly an inspiration. It is always exciting to see a local representing Australia, and I know Bridget and Macey have been training hard in preparation for the world stage. The Yarra Valley and Australia will be cheering you both on. Well done to Bridget.
