Champion barrel racer Jo Caldwell couldn’t be more excited to return to the Mount Isa rodeo arena. And this time she’s bringing her children, Austin, five, and Georgia, six.
Following in their parents’ footsteps – dad Tony, 39, is an Australian saddle bronc champion – the kids will be making their debut in the junior barrel race.
“They’re really excited,” Jo tells Woman’s Day from her property in Blandford, NSW, where the family business is horse breeding. “They’d watched me compete for so long it was a natural progression.”
Sharing a love of rodeo with her kids has been fun for Jo, 44, who fell in love with the sport as a child. After years on the sidelines watching her brother compete, Jo got to jump into the rodeo saddle for the first time in 2004 and she hasn’t looked back.
