Having found myself through the power of the horse when I started riding at age 12, my job is a delight that reminds me all the time how precious horses truly are.I’ve had my horse Lumos (Cloud Less) from 14 months old and produced him myself. He is the horse of my dreams and I have every hope that together, as long and we continue our education and training, we can achieve whatever we put our mind too.

RACHEL DORRELL

Based in Surrey

Affiliated BS and compete in multiple Unaffiliated disciplines from Hunter Trials to Dressage including RoR events.

I’m very lucky to have an Irish Sports Horse x TB who excels in jump events. We’ve represented Surrey at the BS Nationals and were on the winning team. We’ve placed at the Amateur BS Championships since winning the BS Club Finals in previous years. I’ve represented my local Riding Club for numerous years and attended many championships.

Alongside Buckaroo Bob, I’ve retrained numerous racehorses. I had a couple of seasons riding Point to Point and under rules and retired one of my horses from racing, retraining him in multiple disciplines and winning BS club finals and numerous RoR Championship classes.

When I’m not competing, I like a day out drag hunting.
