The Radincon Vets Choice Award recognises riders and horses who demonstrate everything which is great about riding. Talent, tenacity, courage and above all, superior horse management.
We introduced The Radincon Vets Choice Award in 2023, in partnership with Endurance NSW, to promote these great qualities. At every endurance ride of 80km or more, the rider who best embodies the spirit of the Award – as chosen by the vets on the day – receives a beautiful embroidered rug.
The primary judging criterion is that the rider manages their horse beautifully so that it finishes in excellent condition. Our vision is to recognise and encourage the commitment to equine welfare above and beyond winning. It’s all about rising to challenges while still caring for your mount. Winners might be stepping up to a longer distance, or managing their horse effectively after presenting with challenges at the first check-in.
In 2026, we will be awarding the TRCVA at the events below.
