ST PAUL’S Primary School student, Ruby Malerba, recently competed at the Royal Melbourne Show, placing fifth in her turn-out event.
The event was judged on saddlery, outfit, manners, work-out and conformation.
Ruby, 7, is from Monbulk and her proud mother, Karen, says she and her pony, Kista Park Pirouette, qualified for the Royal Melbourne Show by winning about nine agricultural shows around Victoria.
Ruby also placed fifth in the novice pony, a great achievement against ponies from interstate, and sixth in her rider class.
Karen says Ruby is very proud of her achievements and can’t wait to do all the Royal Shows around Australia.
