The ongoing battle for the Ariat Open Rider title continues with Ben Hall taking the top spot from Pete Comiskey this week.
There is only a mild shuffle between the other top ten riders with the exception of Craig Radke.
He’s jumped a whopping 12 places from 20th to 8th place thanks to his success at Paradise Lagoons.

It seems however that the bout for the Riverina Open Horse won’t settle.
Five new horses have entered into the top ten placings from the last article printed.
Newbies are Gitterbug, Diablos Destino, Cool Dust, Miss Heart Acre and Revlon. There has also been a rearrangement of the top three spots, with Ben and Jaye Hall’s mighty horses Foot Acre taking over first place and Classy Dove taking over second.
