Timothée was involved in horse riding from an early age, with his father running the Société Hippique Urbaine de Rouen. French pony champion in 1988, he went on to be part of the French Junior and then Young Rider teams, shining on the competition circuit. With the stallion Fidélio du Thot*HN, whom he trained, he joined the French senior team in 2002, finishing second in the Nations Cup in Budapest (HUN). This marked the beginning of his collaboration with the Haras des M, who entrusted him with their stallions: Harlay l’Echenau then Jarnac, Lamm de Fetan, etc. With them, Timothée Anciaume won several Nations Cup stages as part of the French team, including in 2007 in Gijón (ESP) and in 2009 in Lummen (BEL) and Aachen (GER). The following year he won the Global Champions Tour in Valencia (ESP), again with Lamm de Fetan.
In 2012, the rider moved to his own stud farm in Saint Georges sur Fontaine, Haute-Normandie, where he trained another stallion, Padock du Plessis*HN, as well as a fine generation of horses born in 2004, ridden by Quorioso Pré Noir.
Thanks to these horses, Timothée Anciaume is back in the French team and in major international competitions. In 2013, he won the 3* Nations Cup in Drammen (NOR) and finished 5th in the CSI 5* Grand Prix in Falsterbo, Sweden, with Quorioso Pré Noir. The pair were French Pro Elite champions.
With Padock du Plessis*HN-JO/JEM, Timothée Anciaume stood on the podium at the Nations Cup and the 5* Grand Prix in Dublin (IRL).
