Monty Roberts

Monty Roberts was born in 1935 and rode his first horse, Ginger, at the age of two. A child riding prodigy, he won his first trophy aged four and went to college on a rodeo scholarship. He has worked with horses all his life and his incredible ‘join-up’ technique – with which he gets an unbroken horse to accept its first saddle, bridle and rider in under 30 minutes – has made him famous the world over.
