Hannah Barker

Hannah is 15 years old and based in North Yorkshire. She started riding at the age of 3 on a cheeky Shetland pony called Rosie and she quickly got the competitive bug at local Gymkhanas and progressed to showjumping. She was only 5 when she began competing.

Presentation

Born on the 18th of October 2004, showjumping is in Hannah's blood. Her grandfather David Boston Barker was a member of Great Britain Nations Cup Team in the 1960's and represented Great Britain in the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964. Her first pony Tazmania was a favourite winning many. Moving quickly up to 148 ponies, Ammanvalley Santino is her most successful partner to date.

Harcour product

I love them all! But if I'm pushed, the breeches Jalisca, they are so comfortable and I love the sock ankle detail they fit nice and slim under my boots.

Follow a routine ... having a good network of people around you and having a plan is how I maintain my ponies.
