DAN

Following his Talent Spotting success Dan went to Denmark to train with his young rider horse Sporty Sam. From this he learnt a great deal and then brought on his ex-show jumper from Novice to Prix St George. He travelled with this horse (his first) to many places and had originally intended to Event with him. Sporty Sam was a Hanoverian whose heart was not in the jumping but always did well in the dressage discipline... By this time Dan had already met Judy Harvey FBHS who was very much responsible for his Pony Club A-Test success and the Talent Spotting. He first met Judy at a show where she very kindly read a test for him after seeing he had gone wrong many times, even with his poor flustered mother calling it for him... Being the son of a farmer, Dan started riding from a young age - originally on the farm bull! His father was the Master of Enfield Chase Hunt and introduced Dan to hunting on his scruffy little Welsh pony who would often attempt to roll with rider in saddle while..
