The campdraft season just keeps getting better…all the horses performed really well at the Hawkesdale Campdraft.

KIRKBYS STUD ELVIS and COOLUM OVATION were right in the mix, finishing =3rd in the Open Campdraft on Saturday. Ovation had a cracking day, also making the Novice final. I can’t wait for their foal once they have a date!

KASPERS VERSACE placed =4th in the Open Campdraft on Sunday to continue her ribbon winning streak.

Super proud of how they handled their cattle with David Murphy in the saddle, and very grateful to the sponsors, cattle donors, judges, and hardworking committee who made Hawkesdale such a great draft.
