    Contact Query

    I’m glad someone else likes the way he rides, I am a big fan , I’ve hated the forceful dressage riding which has been getting high marks while the softer ridden less flamboyant horses have been marked unfairly IMO…. I’m not at all qualified to add to this debate but I will say, if you have a...

    Thank you Teapot for the Venetia Williams video, I’ve always liked her and liked Charlie’s way of riding, which it seems is Venetias way. Loved seeing the horses turned out together
