This week’s episode is a good one! After reading about David’s story on Team Oakden’s Facebook page we knew we had to interview him. After a break from riding and not intending to start again, a chance encounter whilst at the dentist, led to David and his wife Krishna finding themselves at Dunbog Farm with two new horses.

David chats to EquiTeam’s Liz Daniels about the ups and downs of his inspiring journey, including how close he came to giving up after disappointments with his first horse George and an injury shortly after buying the very lovely Hamish. Luckily for David, after sending a message to his trainers Sarah and James Oakden telling them he was giving up, they decided to ignore it for a few weeks and slowly built David’s confidence back up. Roll on the end of the season and David and Hamish have completed Blair BE90, been out pointing their toes to win at British Dressage and recently came home from show jumping with a second in their first British Novice.

Massive thanks to David for being so candid about his journey, we can’t wait to follow your journey with Hamish
