Tippy's Story

The unsung hero of the equestrian world is the riding school horse or pony. Whether you are an Olympic showjumper, a long-distance riding competitor, a horse racing jockey or a mum who plods out on a Sunday, you most likely began your career on a riding school horse.

Tippy joined my riding school in 2005.

This is her true story.
