‘The book provides an insight into a horse’s perception and exercises that can be used to overcome its fears. It also manages to explain how these are useful in producing a horse right up to advanced level.’
Harry Mead, Professional Eventer GB 2008
‘The Fearless Horse has given me much inspiration, confidence and support in training my endurance horses.’ Della Short, Endurance Rider, Somerset 2008
‘I have very much enjoyed reading your book – there is some great stuff in there!’ John M., Show Jumper ,Suffolk , 2006
‘It is a very special book because it gives help and guidance from the earliest handling of a foal and is fundamental to whatever training and work the horse will be asked to do during its life. However, it is the understanding which is written into every exercise about what is happening for horse and rider which I think is brilliantly done. I think the book is exceptional.’ Francis M., Teacher, Ledbury 2006
‘Thank you so much for writing The Fearless Horse – it has inspired me to develop a trusting partnership with my lovely mare Florence’. Lorraine P., Rider, Australia 2006
