I primarily travel to clients and coach them on their own horses at their own properties. I have a variety of clients from 11yo on 12.2 ponies just starting out to grand prix pony riders and adults doing 1.30+ classes. I also cover everything in between including eventers and show hunters. I have produced several TB ‘s into successful sport horses since moving to New Zealand in 1999. My most successful horse was Willowridge Eclipse who I took to grand prix show jumping, but he sadly passed away in 2012 at the height of his career only aged 13yo. I am doing a little more eventing this season as one of my latest horses, Willowridge I Know, has taken to this discipline.
