Leigh woodgate biography examples

Since then, I've continued to ride in the High Country. Tonight's program is about a fearless horsewoman who grew up just down the road from the Snowy, who beat the men at their own game. They breed them tough in those mountains, and Leigh Woodgate's experiences have been epic.

This is her story.

LEIGH WOODGATE: Every single thing that happens to you in life is a learning experience. I'm lucky that I've being brought up that you've got to work very, very hard for what you want.

ERIC MUSGROVE, HORSE TRAINER: There had been a couple of female jumps riders prior to Leigh, but Leigh was a natural - she had the perfect background, she's a girl from Buchan, her father's one of the original mountain cattlemen, Grub Woodgate.
