Sister just spent a week with Emily Lochore at Burnham Market and found it amazing and very very helpful. They really focussed on her dressage and SJ as Reg is pretty bold XC although very inexperienced.

Rodney Powell. He is incredible at making a big impression in a short time.
Tom McEwen is his protege- check out his results (or watch the way he rides- almost identical!) Very impressive jockey....
He always leaves you with masses to think about- I always used to go there for a couple of weeks before the start of the season and before a CCI. (very good at polishing).
Hes not afraid to experiment with bits etc, if he thinks something else might be better, and has got great facilities for practicing. As a junior I also found it fascinating seeing the way his yard is run (IMPECCABLE turnout and attention to detail) and he only usually has roughly 10 horses, so lots of time to concentrate on you.
The real bonus is though, If you catch his eye, he will really take an interest. Hes at all the big CCIs and is very generous with his time with helping in the warmup etc.
This is all said from the perspective of a former junior (now young rider) which I think is important. Good Luck.
P.s make sure you are prepared to really put in some hard work and take it seriously though, otherwise he can get very frustrated!!!!
