Pitkin's Story


Pitkin was purchased from DBS Sales as a yearling in 2009. He was a dual winner as a juvenile, with two victories at Wolverhampton.

In 2012 Pitkin recorded a hat-trick winning at Carlisle, Pontefract, Catterick before resuming his career in Bahrain. He won his share of races and retired at the end of 2018, at which point he embarked upon a dressage career with Rosie Jessop.

He was a natural in his new discipline and after just a few months of retraining he was ready to compete. Pitkin is enjoying his new job and his owner tells us that the horse enjoys the competition again!

A big thank you to Allan Michael Smith who kindly provided us with the latest news on this wonderfully versatile horse.
