HE’S back again and sure to bring an evening full of entertainment! Olympic showjumper Geoff Billington returns to Portmore Equestrian Centre on Saturday, February 2nd 2019 at 7pm, in association with Bluegrass Horse Feeds.
The evening will be spilt into two themes - the first part will focus on improving your riding, with demo riders who will no doubt be the subject of Geoff’s witty humour. Geoff will then ride in the second part, ‘doing it my way’, giving tips and tricks on his riding skills that has brought him such success.
The British funny man began riding when he was just nine years of age. At 19, he competed on his first British team in Poland on Joe Pullens’ horse Talk of the North.
His well-known partnership with It’s Otto brought Geoff his biggest success, including sixth place individually at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, team bronze at the European Championships on 1997, team bronze in Manheim 1998, bronze in the World Championships in Rome 1999 and sixth in the European Championships at Hickstead.
It’s Otto was awarded the Outstanding Horse of 1996 and retired at Olympia in 2001.
There will also be the opportunity for riders to avail of one hour lessons with Geoff in groups of four.
These will be held on Thursday, January 31st, and February 1st and 2nd at Portmore Equestrian Centre.
