Whereabouts in sussex and what level are you competing at? Have you looked on the BD trainers database? There must be some in your area on there?

I am based nr Hickstead and have a trainer who is v good however would like some extra sessions with preferably a top trainer/rider who is reliable. I have contacted one rider and am waiting for him to get back to me to confirm a date/time but also was just wondering who people use/ what people think and who gets good results.

I was also thinking of Dane Rawlins?

Have one horse at aff Ele/Med level and one youngster at aff Novice.

Ah, well i train with Andrew Gould, whos based at Danes yard! Both are very good, Dane does scare me tho

I am waiting for Andrew to get back to me to confirm lesson time(contacted them last week)- I've heard good things about him as a trainer and I know he does very well competing! and ooh I'm not sure about scary trainers!!-I'd be grateful if you would be able to pm me about your "scary " experience if you feel that it would benefit me?!!....Thanks for your help and I will let you know how we get on!-

I would also recommend Andrew, especially as you're so close to him. He's excellent

hes not that scary - just likes results!! he tends to train people at a higher level. Ive never been trained by him, but hes often teaching when im training with Andrew and he is strict with his pupils, but a fantastic trainer!

Luckily he loves my horse - altho he did call him a funny colour once! Even when hes being a little b*gger

Ahh thats no so bad then!! glad he likes your horse!
