Meet The Judges

Caitlin O'Sullivan Doyle

Club ambassador Caitlin has been immersed in racing from a young age - a daughter of hall-of-fame jockey turned Group One-winning trainer Lance O’Sullivan and former club ambassador Bridgette, she is the current Entain National Racing Woman of the Year.

Caitlin brings a modern yet respectful nod to the long-standing style associated with the sport and has even had competition partner, Dark Hampton, name a scarf after her, her sister Georgia and mum Bridgette.

Ryan Teece

Club ambassador Ryan grew up on a farm, beginning his professional career riding horses around the world and going on to win multiple equestrian events both here and across the ditch.

Nowadays, when he's not riding his former racehorse, ocean swimming or travelling, he's kept busy either attending racedays or working as a sales director in real estate.

Ryan's knack for style would see him likely winning our own best dressed awards on racedays if it weren't for the fact he's not allowed to enter.
