Logan Massie and Kiwi Ludo competing at a Horse of the Year Show in Hastings.
One of the country's top free riders will perform on her mount without saddle or bridle at tomorrow's Horse of the Year Showcase.
Horses have always been part of Alycia Burton's life, growing up in the Far North. Her career as a public performer started by accident, when she posted
a photo of her jumping her horse without any of the traditional aids.
She will ride Classic Goldrush, a horse with an "extra dose of personality", at the Horse of the Year showcase.
Another special guest, from Gisborne, is Tumanako "Tui" Teka. His horse Kingston, which he has described as "a real character", sits, bows, lies down and rolls over at the smallest signal of command.
Mounted Games riders, who take gymkhana sports to a whole new level, will also put on an action-packed display.
