Jamie Gornall
Jamie started his showjumping career riding for Di Lampard, now Chef d’Equipe and Performance Manager for the British Show Jumping team. He subsequently rode for and trained with a number of the leading riders in Europe, including: Janne Friederike Meyer (German Olympic team show-jumper, World Equestrian Games team gold medallist, European team gold medallist); Rolf Goran Bengtsson (Swedish Olympic team show-jumper and individual Olympic silver medallist); John Whitaker, MBE (British Olympic team show-jumper, former FEI world no. 1, former Individual World Champion and Olympic silver medallist) and Ludger Beerbaum (German Olympic team show-jumper, former FEI world no. 1, Olympic gold medallist, European gold medallist, World Equestrian Games gold medallist).
Jamie is fluent in German and also used his time in Europe to develop strong relationships with key riders and breeders, both of which are invaluable assets when sourcing top horses on the continent. He is extremely knowledgeable about bloodlines and breeding, in particular with regards to the highly respected Holstein bloodlines, having ridden for the Holsteiner Verband whilst working for Janne Friederike Meyer.
Jamie has had consistent success internationally at 5* level and has represented Great Britain on Nation’s Cup teams. He is a member of the UK Sport ‘World Class’ podium potential squad, which identifies, supports and develops athlete/horse partnerships who demonstrate the potential to deliver medal winning performances on the world stage at Senior Championship level for GBR in the future.
