Clayton Fredericks poses as Guns ‘N Roses frontman Axl Rose

Clayton Fredericks has been pictured as you have never seen him before for the latest edition of the CHIO Aachen magazine.

The Aussie eventer pulled on ripped denim and shook out his locks to be snapped dressed as Guns ‘N Roses rock legends Axl Rose and Slash and Angus Young from AC/DC for the magazine.

Clayton is no stranger to power-chords as in his spare time he’s lead singer in the band Snatch.

Unfortunately he’s in Australia at the moment and was unable to chat to H&H about his secret rock ‘n’ roll side but a spokesman for Aachen said he “really let rip” for the shoot entitled For Those About to Rock — and we do salute you Clayton!

The magazine can be purchased at the CHIO offices at the showgrounds or alternatively it can be ordered directly by email (conny.muetze@chioaachen.de). It costs €6.50.
