'We need more novice classes'

IT’S been an exciting time for showing as the next generation of talent has come to the fore. At last month’s Royal International (RIHS) young riders Will Morton and Craig Kiddier finished as supreme and reserve in the prestigious horse supreme championship. Alice Homer also shone at Hickstead after her run at the Great Yorkshire where she took the novice hunter championship.

We’re constantly asking when the next batch of new faces will come through, and it’s happening right now.

I always knew Will would reach the top. He won the SEIB Search For A Star series in 2013 and then he came to work for me when he left school. His attention to detail was second to none and he never left a stone unturned.

It’s lovely he’s now found the right string of horses to take him through; many people have talent, but you also need to have the right material underneath you to succeed. I was so proud and watching him felt as good as winning the class myself.
