SHOW JUMPING TEAM
Australians Arrive At Wellington
(New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, January 13. I The eight horses in the Australian; show jumping team arrived fit and I well in the Monowai this morning after a comfortable crossing, but their riders were just recovering from sea sickness. Looking after the horses was Miss Peta Brown, aged 19, from Coleraine. Victoria. She became a groom in England at 16 and emigrated to Australia a year ago. It is the first full horse team to leave Australia, and on its success will depend whether Australia will send a full horse team to the next Olympic Games.
