Ethan Brown from Heanor is just 5 years old. He has only been riding ponies for two years but has quickly established a big reputation as a very promising little jockey. He enjoys competing all over the country on his ponies, striving to do well and to get better and better all the time.
For such a young child, he is showing amazing levels of determination and ability to work incredibly hard to achieve his dream, something very rare in someone as young as Ethan.
Can you help Ethan get to the next level?
As a promising young local talent, we need to get behind him and support him, and we'd love you to help too. But we're not asking for money or donations!
Ethan's mum has entered him into a competition to win sponsorship from an equestrian clothing company, but he needs lots more votes to be in with a chance of winning. All you have to do is click here to vote through this facebook competition, and if you want to, leave a short comment of support. We've just done it - will you?
Thanks for your help
