Robert started working in stables in exchange for rides and lessons in local dealers and riding schools when he was just 8 years old.
Before leaving school he was already working for local racing trainers John White (Wendover) and owner / trainer Mr Jack Joseph (Coleshill).
He then enjoyed a period at Shardeloes Farm before leaving home at 18 years of age for the Valley of the Racehorse, Lambourn, Berkshire. Here the years flew by where Robert enjoyed senior positions with Jenny Pitman and on her retirement from training Mark Pitman at Weathercock House.
Moving then to Gold Cup winning trainer Noel Chance in the historic yard at Saxon House before sampling flat racing with Gerard Butler just outside Lambourn.
Robert's knowledge of horses, care and treatment of injuries is vast, and as a fully qualified Green Keeper, his paddock maintainence skills are pretty special too.
Andrew Hall - Andrew has ate, slept and breathed horses all of his life and in particular racehorses. Taught reading and maths using the racing pages from an early age he has always and still craves knowledge of all things equine. Although he rode as a boy he didn't have his first 'official' riding lesson until he was 20, within weeks he was trusted enough to lead out the weekend hacks for a local stable, organising the horses before and after. Riding has never captured him though as much as the 'spirit of horse' itself. He has an excellent eye and often spots things that others haven't noticed or even considered, be it with a yearling or a trained horse. Educated to degree standard Andrew currently owns and runs a successful consultancy company, he is also a student of 'Intelligent Horsemanship' and hopes one day to become a Recommended Associate of that organisation.
Angie Hall
Being half Swedish and living her whole life in Chelsea, Angie was more familiar with Ralph Lauren and Space NK than horses until about 4 years ago when she married into the family. She was certainly thrown in at the deep end, moving out into the country and being bombarded with horse talk from all sides her knowledge of care, behaviour and all things 'horse' grows day by day. Besides being a wife and mother, Angie deals with all Hall Acres admin, accounts and runs the stable office
