Equine Work Experience
I have been with horses all of my life I have always had an interest in racing and hunting in September I’m going to the British racing school to train to be a jockey I will be there for 12 weeks. I have been hunting with hired horses. I have my own horses that I’ve broken myself I take them out cross country and showjumping. Last year I went to college to study my level 2 equine management I passed with a distinction. This summer I have been to 2 equine jobs I currently are working both of them part time, in these jobs I am a groom I’m an exercise rider I take them to showjumping competitions and cross country competitions. I have never worked at a racing yard but I’m very keen to learn and I have a real passion for horses.

I have worked with young courses before but I’ve never worked with foals, youngest I’ve worked with is two years old. I’ve worked with stallions before as they had a study in at my college. I have never worked with broodmares before. I have experience leading a team as I was head groom at Roundoak farm. I am quick at mucking out because at college I had to look out a stable in 15 minutes in order for me to pass, and I can keep the yard tidy when I muck out.
Type of Ride Work
