Description: I am honoured to have been awarded an MBE for taking part in the sport I love. To win team gold at the London 2012 Olympics was a dream come true. Standing on the podium was the proudest moment of my life.

How lovely to be back to normal and to be competing again, the horses are all feeling very well and the season is now in full swing. Between schooling all the horses get to relax in the fields and on days off they enjoy long hacks around the lanes where a favourite pass time is to nibble the hedgerows! My afternoons are busy training clients, and I'm very pleased we can now have visitors to the yard again.
A huge thank you to fans at home and across the world, your support is amazing and much appreciated!
How quickly the years go by, already the focus is now firmly on Tokyo 2020, with Rio and London now glorious memories. The yard is as busy as ever with horses at every stage of their competition careers, it's always exciting to see them progressing through the levels with Grand Prix the ultimate goal. Our superstars Valegro and Uthopia are busy with appearances and stud duties between enjoying time in the fields and hacking. The support shown by fans across the world is hugely appreciated, thank you for bei
