His first 3 editions, which were bronzes that had a Grand National design theme. In the early 1980's, he retired from the saddle to focus on sculptures and sculpture in his studio in the Shires, Oxford shire. He has held numerous exhibitions. His early works focused on expressing the originality and motion of race horses. He has produced a broad variety of subject and practiced a variety of different methods. His dream was to produce a vast scale work and this dream was realized when he was commissioned to produce a full-sized sculpture of Red Rum which was for Restraint Racecourse. He has finished many other life-size bronzes which stand in a variety of different countries, like Canada, Japan, Ireland, France, Australia as well as the UK. His present day works have been to produce Persian Punch & Best Mate for New market Racecourse and a dressage horse for an equestrian center based in Penang, Malaysia. In his exhibitions he has shown to seize the spirit of expression and suspended motion in his animals works.

She raced without winning in 1978 before being retired to stud.
