After a journey of 48 hours from Sydney, the gelding T.N.T. is understandably tired as he rests his head on the shoulder of Mr John Fahey, the manager and trainer of the junior New South Wales show jumping team which will tour the South
Island during the next five weeks. The five horses and riders left Sydney at 7 a.m. on Saturday and arrived at Christchurch Airport at 5 a.m. yesterday. The horses had Ko have their shoes removed before making the flight, and had to be re-shod by
Mr Fahey before any exercising and training could be done. The horses and riders are at the Chelandry Stud at Prebbleton preparing for the tour. Their first event will be in the Otago A. and P. Show on Thursday and Friday.
