🐴 Horse Training Opportunity – Warragul Equestrian Centre 🐴
We currently have space to take on one (possibly two) horses for training with Dave Middleton at Warragul Equestrian Centre.
This season Dave is focusing on just one serious competition horse — with one horse out for the year and another now being campaigned by Emma — which means he has genuine time available to give another horse consistent, individual attention.
Dave has decades of experience producing and competing horses at elite level, including placing 11th at the World Championships, winning the Adelaide CCI5* twice, show jumping up to 1.45m, and riding up to Advanced level dressage. That experience now translates into practical, structured training for everyday riders and horses.
This opportunity would suit:
• Young horses needing correct foundations
• Horses that need polishing or confidence building
• Riders wanting help improving rideability and performance
• Competition horses needing to be kept in work while riders are on holiday or managing other time commitments
• Owners wanting guidance on how to get the best from their horse
Training can include ridden work, flatwork improvement, jumping education, dressage development, competition preparation, and the option to incorporate lessons so owners can learn alongside their horse.
Professional, experienced, and realistic — with a focus on correct training and long-term development.
