Sponsored Rider Brent Jury

We welcome Canterbury farrier and eventing legend Brent Jury on board as Clarke McKenzie’s newest Sponsored Rider.

Brent evented competitively as a youngster, but let it go in his 20′s. He hunted and whipped for Brackenfield Hunt until partner Julie steered him back into eventing about six years ago. Brent says it was like he’s never been away from it. His big 17.1 TB mount is aptly named SE Big (SE after their farm, Striding Edge). Big is a careful show jumper and working on strengthening his dressage phase with coach Penny Castle.

They have enjoyed a fantastic season with some deserving results, including winning the Forest Gate Trophy for the Advanced Champions.
