A second equestrian from the outer South Western Sydney region has qualified to compete in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
It is Hilary Scott, an equestrian jumper who has lived at the Wollondilly Shire village of The Oaks for most of her life.
Her love of show jumping started during her time with The Oaks Pony Club and has grown from there to the point where she will be going for gold, silver or bronze in Paris.
Hilary Scott, who is 36 years old, is currently based in the Netherlands where she competes across Europe and the USA.
Along with her mother, Alice Cameron, Ms Scott trains an impressive team of horses through the family business, Oaks Sports Horses.
Hilary’s mount for the 2024 Olympic Games, Oaks Milky Way, is one of the best the mother and daughter team have bred.
Mor than that, Hilary Scott and Oaks Milky Way share an unbreakable bond.

Mayor Gould said wished Hilary Scott and Oaks Milky Way all the best as they compete for Australian on the world stage.
