MAGNIFICENT fashions, splendid horses, a big crowd and great weather were the order of the day for the annual Boulia Easter Race day.
Five races were run in the course of the afternoon, with race four being the Toby & Gem Harris Road Contractors Boulia Cup which was won by Castellani trained by George Tipping and ridden by Aaron Spradau.
Once the excitement of races was over Mt Isa DJ Richo kept the crowd entertained keeping the dance floor packed until it was time for the Easter Bilby to deliver his basket of goodies.

Normal tradition for the Boulia Easter event is that the races are combined with rodeo and campdraft.
Since 2013 Easter was very early in the year the availability for cattle for the campdraft wasn’t available so the decision was made by Boulia Rodeo Association who host the campdraft and rodeo the weekend after Anzac Day on April 26-28
