Campdrafters back in the saddle again at Tamworth’s Nutrien Classic after 12 months off the circuit

While the pandemic put a stop to campdrafting for most of 2020, riders are finally out of isolation, back on the road, and in the saddle.

Tamworth’s Nutrien Classic has seen people travel far and wide from many states to get back on the campdraft circuit this week.

After 12 months of cancelled drafts, the performance horse event has been a welcome beginning to the 2021 season.

For some horses and riders, it is the first time they have competed in a year and laid eyes on distant friends.

Craig McNabb travelled from Moama on the New South Wales-Victorian border with his horses Spotty and Phoenix.
