The Australian Stock Horse Society

About the Society

The Society was established in 1971 in Scone (New South Wales) which promotes itself as ‘the Horse Capital of Australia’. Today the Society is the largest of more than 70 individual horse breed associations in Australia. We enjoy a loyal and growing membership of more than 9,500 individuals and have in excess of 170,000 registered horses.

The Society has 66 Branches throughout Australia. Our Branches conduct competitions and activities for Members in their area and assist in promoting the breed within the horse industry. The successful performance of the Australian Stock Horse has not only been recognised throughout Australia, but exports to United Kingdom, United States of America, Africa, New Zealand and Asia have given them worldwide recognition. The Society conducts a National Championships on an annual basis to emphasise, highlight and record the success of the breed in the competition area.

The Society aims to preserve and promote the bloodlines of the Australian Stock Horse, recognised for its versatility and superior performance amongst work and leisure breeds. Our Board of Directors endeavours to ensure that the history and identity of the Australian Stock Horse remains clearly identified and for the Australian Stock Horse to continue for many years to come.
