Jayden’s return to Willinga Park comes after an impressive Olympic journey, during which he proudly represented Australia and competed with two Willinga Park-owned horses, Quincy B and Sky Diamond. His decision to launch his training business marks an exciting new venture, reflecting his deep commitment to developing dressage in Australia.

Ginette Snow, owner of Willinga Park, expressed her pride in Jayden’s Olympic selection with Quincy B. She looks forward to seeing him continue his journey at the state-of-the-art facilities Willinga Park offers.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Jayden back to Willinga Park. His incredible achievements on the world stage at the Paris Olympics have showcased his hard work, skill, and dedication. Jayden’s new training business here will create opportunities for riders across all levels to benefit from his experience and expertise. His passion for excellence aligns perfectly with Willinga Park’s vision for the future of equestrian sport in Australia and carries forward the legacy of my late husband Terry Snow,” said Ginette.

Jayden Brown joined Willinga Park’s Elite Athletes program in 2020 before relocating to Great Britain in 2022 to prepare for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. “Willinga Park has provided me with unparalleled support, and I’m excited to be back to continue my journey and help nurture the next generation of dressage riders. The facilities here are world-class, and I look forward to sharing my experience and training methods with riders who are passionate about the sport,” said Jayden.

Jayden initially took seven horses with him to the UK to train and compete with, and three will return home to Australia, one of which has been privately sold. WillingaPark Quincy B and WillingaPark Miana will remain in training with Jayden.

It was important to Jayden and Willinga Park that the horses remaining in the UK have found suitable homes to set them up for success, whether that be a continued career path or a well-deserved break.

Welcome back, Jayden!
