It depends how high your standard are. We've got a few grogs with Ride 3, but none with any Teaching ability or high Com. The local village, being Kipchaks, probably has some better riders, but there's a language barrier there which means you'd be limited to training.
If you do want to go for a Grog, Damianos, the want-to-be-stablemaster is probably the obvious choice (https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/covenfolk-character-sheets/5242/1). Assuming you are a single student you'll get 8 xp per season from him.
