I started riding at the age of thirteen but only started riding competitively four years ago when we moved to Cobham Manor Equestrian Centre. I have owned numerous horses but to enable me to fund my competing and training have brought and sold on numerous horses so I can buy talented youngsters, some I will keep others I will sell to fund and further my career.

I have trained in Holland with Peiter Verbarkel for two months were I learnt a lot, developing a good seat through staying on the youngsters and on how to progress young horses. I have also spent invaluable time with Michel and Mette Assouline.

On returning from Holland I purchased Cobhams Zimba as an unbroken 3 year old. This striking grey stallion by Biotop x Democrat is now 6 but things haven’t always gone to plan. As a 4 year old he had an accident which resulted in a puncture wound to his face and was off for 6 months while it healed.
