I've worked in accountancy for 25 years and wasn't aware of "equestrian accountants"
although my poor boss may as well be with all that he has to put up with from me.

Well as im in my final year of accounting degree was kind of hoping there might be niche market in horsey accounting where I get to sit in an office looking at pretty ponies rather than being in some box ten floors up in a city anywhere.
Oh rubbish got all excited then

As an Accountant of 30 years experience I hate to break it to you but you will spend the vast majority of your career staring at spreadsheets & powerpoint presentations. I did have one job though where F1 drivers used to park their private jets outside my window.

The closest I get to horses in my job is my monthly copy of 'Equestrian Business' magazine appearing on my desk
Although I do have a big name rider and lots of vets amongst my clients, I'm still not a 'horsey' accountant.
Back to the OP - depending on the issue you need help/advice upon, then a rural/agricultural specialist might be the best idea. In all honesty, any decent accountancy practice should be able to apply their existing knowledge to the equestrian sector.

Do you mean a Turf Accountant?
I am a Chartered Accountant and I have a very boring job, which has flashes of brilliance when I get sent to the US.
Accountancy means that you can work 9-5 (if you choose the right sort of accountancy and don't get involved in any of that tax stuff) earn loads of money, can afford a nice horse and lorry and then go competing at weekends. I like having a boring well paid job and be able to do what I like in my spare time.

Not specifically equestrian but my younger bruv is a rural specialist at an accountancy practice in Wiltshire - works with lots of farms and I think they do some trainers / studs as well. He likes it as he gets to go out and visit lots of clients, and also paid to do things like go to Bath and West... it's a tough life.

Just talked to a good friend of mine and she recommended http://www.lambert-chapman.co.uk/about/accountant-maldon.html since she's used them before (have you seen accountant salary and how much they make?). Hope this helps!
Have a great day,
