Daisy has a small team of horses to compete, which enables her to give each horse the individual attention needed to bring them out at their best. An advanced level competitor, she has produced several horses through to 5* and still has her sights firmly set on competing at that level. Years of hunting, pony club, starting horses from scratch and competing on the American and European eventing circuit has given Daisy enviable 'old school' horsemanship only gained over time. She backs and starts all our horses herself and takes huge pride in building their futures. Her quiet manner and skill set with the young horses is enviable.
Richard comes from a farming background and a horse family. He is from the 'old school' and sold many horses into hunting in the UK. Most of our young eventers were hunted by Richard and Daisy prior to starting their eventing careers.

They have exported horses to Ireland, Germany, Holland, France, USA, Norway, Sweden(etc) and sold hundreds of horses throughout the UK.
