I am very honoured and feel extremely privileged to have been given the opportunity to work with Cairnside sir Alex aka Alex. He is an incredible horse and his lovely owners Glenda Godfrey , Nick & Amanda Gauntlett and Alison Scrivens and her family have given me this opportunity. Unfortunately Alison passed away all too soon a couple years ago and she was a huge part of Alex’s life and career. I hope to make her proud and honour her memory with the partnership I am sure will develop with Alex, if the first couple of weeks are anything to go by. I would also like to thank my parents for always supporting me and enabling such amazing opportunities. I am looking forward to finally being able to start competing again, it should be an exciting remainder of the season.
