Nonda Southern Cross surpassed all expectiations at the 2021 Condamine Bell, not only finishing in 5th position but winning the Cutout after a run off (24 23). Here’s how the story unfolded on facebook.
15/10/2021 – Round 1
Nonda Southern Cross – Denzel. What can we say?
He’s been in his stallion yard for over two years and has never seen a saddle or seen a cow in that entire time. He saw a saddle for the first time yesterday evening when he was dropped off to Will Durkin.
Heather & David Pascoe “ponied” him to get him match ready!
This run in Rd1 of the 2021 Condamine Bell does all the talking: 88 (24 20 4)
Congratulations to Will. This has been worth the wait!
16/10/2021 – Round 2
Nonda Southern Cross – Denzel…90 (22 64 4). Yes, thank you that will do nicely. Straight to final of the 2021 Condamine Bell.
Yesterday’s Rd1, Will & Denzel’s first ride together ever – 88. Today Rd2, their 2nd ride – 90! Can’t wait for this afternoon’s final.
This combination!
16/10/2021 – The Final
And we raise the bar! Nonda Southern Cross & Will Durkin smashing out another great run. 88.5 (Rd1-88 & Rd2-90). 3 Round total of 266.5 to assume the lead (9/43).
3 runs for 3 great scores and winner of the Cut out after a run off (24 & 23). Incredible.
Connections could not be more delighted!
