Arthur and Logan Duffort: Competing at the top level

We both moved to the UK to pursue our riding careers, originally riding for some of the top event riders in the world including Andrew Nicholson, William Fox-Pitt, and Mark Todd.

After marrying in 2012, we joined forces to run our international eventing yard, Otis Eventing.

Since running the yard together, we have seen success from the lower levels up to 5 star. These include placings at some of the most prestigious events in the world including the World Championships for young horses at Le Lion D’Angers up to Burghley 5 star.

After 15 years in England working with some amazing trainers, owners, and sponsors, we decided to relocate to France in 2023.

If you would like to get involved with our team as an owner, sponsor, or client, we would love to hear from you!  We run a friendly yard with excellent facilities and supported by dedicated staff.
