“I\’m ready for a change. I\’ve been over in the States doing a lot of clinics and teaching recently and really enjoying it,” he told Horse & Hound. “It\’s not a decision I made lightly. I have great owners who are honest and truthful, and I spoke to them and my parents before I made it. They said: \’Only you can make that decision, and you have to decide what\’s best for you.\’ “
He will reportedly be bringing his Olympic partner, Shear L\’Eau, but not Coup De Coeur, on whom he finished third at the Rolex Kentucky CCI**** in April.
