Rachel and her mother Kathleen’s first horse with Oliver was Eldmire Foxy Lady, who Oliver started to compete in 2006 – Rachel having met Oliver out hunting. There have been a couple of horses in between but they now own ODT Ghareeb.
Why eventing? I ride, but don’t have the time to compete and wouldn’t have competed at the top level. Mum and I live in different parts of the country so it’s nice to get together at competitions to watch our horse.
Why Oliver? He’s straight talking and honest, works to a particular target and is a strong rider in all three phases.
