Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Journey to Becoming Australia's Equestrian Team Vet – We Chat with Dr Nathan Anthony
Q: What does the team vet do in the lead-up to a championship, and how do you balance medical decisions with selecting riders?
The answer centers on keeping horses available for selection through early intervention, close communication with home vets, surveillance over 18 months, and providing informed opinions to selectors while maintaining trust with riders.
The Journey to Becoming Australia's Equestrian Team Vet – We Chat with Dr Nathan Anthony
Q: Tell us how you first got involved with the Australian team vet program and what the path looked like.
Nathan explains how starting as an associate veterinarian in Adelaide and stepping up during a health scare of the then head vet created opportunities to learn from senior officials, eventually leading to the role of FBI veterinary delegate and then team veterinarian through mentorship and hands-on experience.
Persistence, Passion, Family & Opportunity – meet Will Enzinger
Q: What does his role as High Performance Director involve on a day-to-day basis?
He explains responsibilities spanning budget, logistics, staff coordination, athlete support, and aligning with AIS funding, as well as a focus on creating a stable environment for athletes and teams.
Leadership, legacy & grandkids - meet Janet Houghton.
Q: Why is Melbourne such a central part of the Australian eventing landscape and how does it balance grassroots and high-performance needs?
Melbourne serves as a keystone event that fuels development through its extended weekend format, foreshort options, and support for young riders, while also connecting to international competition by maintaining high-quality venues and courses. It sits alongside Adelaide and other venues to keep the sport vibrant from grassroots to elite levels.
Leadership, legacy & grandkids - meet Janet Houghton.
Q: What does a day-in-the-life look like for Melbourne 3 Day Event's director in the lead-up to the event?
The role involves nearly every detail—from sponsorship and vendor coordination to accommodation, stabling, toilets, and the schedule. It starts soon after the previous event ends, with extensive planning, budgeting, and logistics to create a smooth experience for riders and spectators alike.
