Good old Yogi, or Dr Dolittle as he's known.
It's not just race horses he works with Ste, he works in eventing, hunting and dressage disciplines - apparently the bloke is a genius.
I used to think he was some weirdo who lived somewhere near Munich but he's lived near Cheltenham for years apparently....

A profile on Yogi from the Team GB Eventing website:


Yogi Breisner was appointed World Class Performance Manager and Chef d'Equipe to the British Eventing team in 2000. He had just eight months to get to know the squad before the Sydney Olympics, at which they won team silver, Britain's first eventing Olympic medal for 12 years.

Yogi has since led medal winning teams at both the 2004 Athens and 2008 Beijing Olympic Games in addition to enjoying many successes at both European and World Championships.Yogi is Swedish-born and first trained under his fellow Swede, Lars Sederholm, at Waterstock where he was based for 13 years from 1978-91. A member of the Swedish Eventing team from 1976-87, Yogi won European team gold in 1983 and competed at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics on Ultimus. He finished in the top 10 at Badminton four times.

Aside from his duties as British Eventing's National Coach, Yogi is much in demand in National Hunt racing, training both jockeys and horses to jump. Yogi grew up in a small village outside Malmo, he was 21 when he left Sweden to live in Ireland for 3 1/2 years before coming to live in Britain in 1978. Yogi is married to Hilary; they live in Thame, Oxfordshire, and have two sons.
