Equine insurance

From the gallops to the show ring - you ride, we protect.

Helping you protect what really matters

Our Equine team cares about horses as much as you do. We’re embedded in this world because we love it. We’re the official Insurance Partner of the Victoria Racing Club, an official partner of Royal Ascot, and our founder David Howden is the founder and president of the Cornbury House Horse Trials.   

Our experience and passion helps financially safeguard you and your financial asset, without you having to pay over the odds for your premiums.
