Who's Who

Manson, Jessica

Discipline : Eventing

Born : 1992

 

The young eventer has been steadily moving up the ranks: first a spot on the 2010 Young Rider Trans Tasman team, only two years later a fourth place in the 2012 CCI 4 Star in Adelaide, then really making herself known with second place at the 2014 Sydney CCI 3 Star event, riding her tough little stockhorse, Legal Star, aka Trumby the brumby.

The pair went on to take out the Adelaide International Four Star in November 2014.

“I am 21, from the Swan Valley in Western Australia. Mum got me into pony club from very early on, that’s where it all started. I did everything, a lot of Prince Phillip Games Mounted Games up to international level, and then when I turned fourteen or fifteen, I decided that eventing was it. I still do a little bit of everything else, but I have been sticking with eventing for a while now and I still love it…”
