Type of Ride Work
Ridden a wide range of horses due to extensive experience over the country and in Zimbabwe. . On multiple occasions I was trusted to ride my bosses hunters on working days and days off, quite often I would get swapped onto "challenging horses" as well as sitting on youngsters that were getting broken in. My riding developed most when I was awarded the scholarship where I was trained by top coaches, riding a range of horses and training alongside riders who compete up to 4* level.
Competition Details
I've been competing for 13 years, trying a variety of different disciplines such as showing, dressage, show jumping, hunter trails and eventing. Highlights include reaching national level for combined training, as well as placing at Breckenbrough, Epworth and Camp Hill
