Oliver took over the ride on Armada from his good friend Andrew Nicholson at the start of 2012. He is a well known horse, not only for his good times but sometimes not so good times. Oliver’s highlights with Armada include finishing 2nd at Badminton, 4th at Burghley and winning the British Open Championships and Burnham Market CIC3*.
