Our Search for a Star is on in earnest!
Firstly a big thank you to the breeders and photographers who sent in the 46 entries we received for this year’s Search For A Star! The quality is outstanding and we’re rapt to be able to showcase all your little stars in a dedicated Facebook album.
All entries were sent to our panel of independent graphic designers to select their favourite six (though some of their favourites weren’t large enough, or couldn’t be cropped to the portrait orientation - check the guidelines if you’re keen to enter next year’s Search) and these are now open to a public vote throughout June on our Facebook Page.
The image in this dedicated 2023 Search For A Star Finalists album with the most likes or reactions at 6PM on Friday 30 June will feature on the cover of this season’s IRT Australasian Standardbred Stallion Guide. Note that we can only count likes for these individual images and not on shared posts.
Congratulations to finalists for 2023:
Breckon Farms - Love You x Tailored Elegance filly
Sally-Ann Burgess - Always B Miki x Thunder Cookie filly
Noel & Ruth Shinn - Captain Crunch x Alina filly
The Greene family - What The Hill x Charlotte Galleon colt
John McIntyre - Poster Boy x Em Ottey filly
Sharon Hahne - Mel Mara x Falling Shards filly
