He continued to pursue his passion for riding while studying in Sydney at Newington College and later at Agricultural College.In 1991, Phillip moved to the United States to train in a more internationally competitive environment, and to prepare for the 1996 Olympics in Athens, at which he was a member of Australia’s Gold Medal Three-day Eventing Team. Since his move to the U.S., Phillip has represented Australia in three Olympics and four World Championships.

In 2005 he was also the number one FEI World Event Rider.Phillip manages and trains out of True Prospect Farm, in West Grove, Pennsylvania.
