return to equestrian competition with the EFA Show where the transferred
Grand Slam events were decided after having originally been programmed
for the abandoned horse schedule for the 2007 Adelaide Royal Show (due
to EI). A second hack ring was run throughout the day. It
was great to be back action after 5 months of cancellations due to the
EI outbreak and organisers did a fantastic job for the first full day
show back.

Olson while the Be Active Grand Slam events were judged by Elizabeth
