Meet the team

(Operations Manager)

kym cooper

Kym runs the whole behind the scenes of Hancock Horsemanship. From bookings to phone calls to emails, if you contact the business, this is who'll you get. She's been with HH for 6 years & we would be lost without her!
"When Donal first hired me, I asked what his goal was, he said - 'Just get me a crack at the RTTH World Title', I feel incredibly proud I helped him achieve that dream"

(Stable hand)

Maguire casey

Quick with the wit but serious about horses, Maguire started riding at 5 and Campdrafting at age 11. His passion for training & breeding was inspired by his legendary stallion CD ROM & his keen interest to take his horse education further, led him to Hancock Horsemanship. "I have always loved working with horses & seeing what starting them well, with the right foundations can mean for the horses and their owner. I really enjoy watching them progress"

(Social Media Manager)

Jo Crilley

If you're looking for Jo, you'll find her either rolling in the sand with 6 cameras to get 'the perfect shot' or in her PJ's in front of a computer! Don't ask her anything about horses, she calls halters 'head thingamajigs' but she'll take a damn good photo of one! "I love nothing more than a spectacular sunset & someone engaged in doing what they're passionate about, in front of my lens"

(Farmhand assistants)

Haku & rico

Haku & Rico have grown up together and when they're not teasing each other, they do their best to help out around the farm, checking in on the horses & ensuring everything's running smoothly. After 2 minutes of hard work you will find them resting in the shade or catching a ride on the quad bike because their legs are tired.

(Cow Horse Trainers)

gin & tonic

This talented pair of North American Bison, have aquired many years of experience in the training of cutting, campdrafting & Reined Cow Horses.
They are smarter & have more endurance and speed than cattle, providing a smoother & more confident education for the horse to learn to rate, turn & control. When their not busy training cow horses, you'll find them relaxing around their own private lagoon.

(The Equine team)

Snippet-priest-ducky

The Equine team that helped shape Hancock Horsemanship into what it is today! Snippet & Priest are Liberty Performance & Film-work trained, appearing in numerous tv commercials, shows & music videos.
Ducky is our cutting, reining & working cow horse.
