Without doubt one of the best young riders in the country, Dan's climb up the senior ranks has been very impressive. After an very good start to his senior career in 2008, Dan won his first senior International class in 2009 and finished the year in very impressive fashion winning two classes at the Porto CSI**** International show in December. 2009 also included numorous wins at home including the Crofton Manor Grand PRIX and victory at Royal Windsor.

The 2011 season has seen Dan develop into a top class rider and he has established his International pedigree with a string of successes abroad. On the home front Dan won the Olympia U23 Great Britian Championships in December which capped another very impressive season.

Based in Essex with Jason and Karina Moore at their high class equestrian yard, the team have built up a very impressive squad of horses including Varo M and Chauvanist, who have both been produced by Dan, 2012 promises to be another very exciting year for this very talented rider.

"I'm really pleased with the way the 2011 season progressed. We have concentrated on going abroad to gain experience for both myself and the horses and they all have improved because of this exposure. I have a great team behind me, Jason and Katrina have been fantastic and we have some exceptional owners together with some high class sponsors, and have been lucky enough to be bringing Balanced Horse Feeds at a sponsor for 2012. My main objective for 2012 is to keep improving and trying to push for some International team events."
