Have worked in a riding school previously and currently working as a student stud hand at a Stud. Turning horses in and out, mucking out, feeding, handling foals, general yard duties.

Have previously worked at a riding school for three years, with a mix of different types of horses and a variety of different duties. Bringing in from the field, grooming, tacking up for lessons, taking some lower level lessons, leading hacks. Keeping an eye on field maintenance and takings steps if needed. Making feeds and adjusting with the managers go ahead when required to keep the weight and energy levels where they should be. Worked as a team but within own roles, a lot of sole work as big farm/school.

Currently working on a stud with mares and foals. Very willing to learn new skills and develop riding.

I have ridden horses from 13hh to a 17.2hh shire. At the riding school mainly cobs and connies, but only ploddy point and go types. Have also ridden a green 11 year old ex driven 13.2hh pony very nervous who needed alot of confidence building, gained with lots of love and hacking. A lot of my riding for the last 3/4 years has been hacking only due to time restraints working in a busy riding school and now at a stud so my flat work needs some work and so does the jumping, never hunted.
