Seems his interests were leaning more toward horses at this time.  While he was a private he was honored for his bravery and given the position of Captain. When he received his discharge he decided to start breeding horses in the attempt to acquire the best horse he could. While his interest in horse breeding grew so did his interest in land investments.

Master Wyatt is most noted for his breeding of Andalusian horses. The facts on how he acquired these particular horses are rather vague.  Many a story has been told as to how he acquired them but no one really knows for sure and Wyatt isn’t talking. Master Wyatt’s reputation with his horses had reached the ear of Lord Manner's, Earl of Rutland. Lord Rutland did pin a letter himself to invite Master Wyatt to converse on this matter. After a lengthy stay, Master Wyatt has taken the position of Master of Horse for the Rutland's. Lord Rutland's interest lye’s with Master Wyatt improving the horse stock for the family.
