Jason Lindley teamed up on the horse PV Grasshopper, owned by Tory Acton, to win the Nutrien Classic.
During the past five days, some of the country's strongest competitors have been battling it out for a share in more than $270,000 worth of prizes.
The following are a highlight of results so far:
- Troy Palmer from Coolah, NSW won the Martins Stock Haulage Open Campdraft, riding Hells A Comin, Owned by Terry Snow
- Beau Beutel from Kalbar, QLD won the Charlie Maher Young Guns Campdraft riding Reys Ya Garter, Owned by Corey & Trudy Holden

- Ben Seidel from Warwick, QLD won the 4 Cyte Masters Campdraft riding Glendeen Shick, Owned by Ben Seidel
- Jason Lindley from Gundagai, NSW won The Nutrien Classic riding PV Grasshopper, Owned by Tory Acton
A big drawcard of the event is the horse sale. Last year the auction grossed more than $7 million with a clearance rate of 83 per cent.
"The competition side of the classic has so far been both positive and strong, and everyone seems to be having a really great time," said Nutrien Equine's Claudia Turnbull.
"We now look forward to seeing what results and excitement are in store for the next few days, as we begin the sales and draw to the end of the classic for 2020."
