I entrusted my daughter's much loved pony with Sam to bring her back into work after 2+ years in the paddock. Sam immediately assessed her and organised all the attention she required to make her journey back to work a positive and productive experience. Not only is Sam an exceptional rider, coach & trainer, he is gentle, patient, understanding, organised, communicative & a pleasure to work with. Along with Sam's professionalism and the support of Wendy & her wealth of experience & her positive & supportive attitude I could not be happier with the results. I can highly reccommend Jeffree Eventing [...]

My horse, Northern Isaac, had his introduction to eventing with Vaughan Ellis in October 2012. Vaughan did a fabulous job teaching Isaac to jump, starting with a pole on the ground. They started competing at Inverleigh in February 2013, and their final performance was the “Friends of Werribee” Prelim in 2014, which they won. Vaughan had decided he couldn’t keep riding Isaac and be able to fit in riding his own horse, so he was turned out with the future uncertain. Sam’s aunt, Sharon, mentioned that Sam was interested in getting another horse. Vaughan also knew Sam and he thought Sam [...]

I am proud to highly recommend Jeffree Eventing after my experience with Sam and his help in retraining my OTT. My horse had raced successfully for 7 years and ended up in our paddock for retirement.

I sent him to Sam who knew exactly how to get inside the OTT's head and introduce him to his new career. His gentle and calm approach is exactly what my boy needed. With the consistent work, he built up strength in the [...]

l have known Sam since he was a very young rider, he then came to Haileybury and joined the Equestrian Team with my son Alex. Sam stood out because of his easy going manner and ability to fit in with the Team and mentor the younger riders. Over the years he has developed a strong passion for eventing and a keen interest to learn as much as he can from all the opportunities he has had. This along with his incredible work ethic and energy has resulted in success in training and campaigning of his and clients horses. We now co-own [...]

Fantastic results with Sam, he had our quirky mare for around seven weeks and had her working well and out to clinics and competing at several horse trials in that time. Seriously worth investing in Sam for both training and competition exposure of any horse. Can't recommend highly enough. Sam goes above and beyond and cares for your horse like it's one of his own.
