IRISH championship dressage rider Alex Baker is moving back to the UK after spending over two years riding at Helgstrand Dressage in Denmark.

“I am moving back to the UK to be head rider at Newton Stud,” Alex told Irish Horse World this week. “They have some exciting horses and I’m looking forward to the future with them. I have loved living abroad and I have learnt a lot from the whole experience. I was not looking for anything but I got offered this great opportunity. So it’s worth a shot!”
