Welcome to the Roger Cleverly: Equestrian Training Home Page.

We can help you in a variety of equestrian disciplines. Our specialities are Carriage Driving, Hunters and Jumpers, and we can also provide basic English and Western riding lessons. Our barn in Knightsen has access to miles of local trails that are suitable for all levels of riders and drivers, and many are useable throughout the winter.

The Trainer: Roger Cleverly. Trains Horses, Ponies and Minis for Carriage Driving, and drivers for both pleasure and competitive driving. He also trains English saddle seat, Hunters and Jumpers, and reschools ex. track Thoroughbreds for second careers. Thoroughbreds and British Mountain & Moorland ponies are a specialty as Roger is from Britain, and was an amateur assistant in a racing yard for 13 years. Roger is now a well known competitor in carriage driving competitions, particularly with Davidson Dales Stud’s Dales Pony stallion, Colliery Alick.

Our Training Center is located in Knightsen, near Brentwood in the East Bay, CA. The barn has 45 stalls, a round pen, a training arena, and acess to miles of quiet country roads and trails. We can take animals there for intensive training and conditioning. We also travel and can work at your boarding barn or home facility, or at a barn to which we are affiliated in the East Bay area of California. Currently, we have clients in Calistoga and Marin in the North, Martinez in the West, Pleasanton and Livermore to the South and Brentwood and Byron to the East, and many others in between. Please browse the site via the navigation buttons.
