Duties of Current Occupation
I’ve helped run a event yard being responsible for 20+ horses and multiple young members of staff.
Equine Work Experience
I compete my own horse, I’ve worked on competition yards grooming away and at home, ridden multiple horses through fitness on the flat, hacks, jumping and gallops, taught in the riding school and worked with hunt horses plaiting, trimming, washing.
Specialities
I’ve handled and worked with some young stock and stallions. I’ve lead two different teams with extremely high turn out and expectations.
Type of Ride Work
I’ve done all sorts of riding, mostly BS but have competed low level BE. I’ve worked with 4 year olds to schoolmasters on the flat and jumping. I’m happy jumping and competing at 1.15 with the aim to go higher. I aim to do 1.20 on my current horse in the future with the potential to do 1.25.
Competition Details
I have competed in all disciplines including affiliated BS and BE. I have groomed for some 4* riders in eventing.
