Alan and Lawney train up to 25 horses on their 1,000 acre farm in Oxfordshire. They have extensive grass gallops, a horse walker and the Chiltern Hills at their disposal. They have been training for18 years and have had plenty of success with all types of horses, from unbroken 4yrs to soured-off racehorses from training.

Alan was a highly successful amateur for over 20 years and is one of a very few people to have ridden the winners of both the Cheltenham and the Liverpool Foxhunters.

He has also won the Liverpool Foxhunters twice; Border Burg in 1987 and Sheer Jest in 1995, which is probably why he supports LFC now! He still says that Elmboy's performance in the 1985 Cheltenham Foxhunters was the most impressive ride of his career.

He finished on 98 P2P wins and 48 wins under rules which for someone who had to force his weight down to two stone below his natural weight is quite an achievement!
