Duties of Current Occupation
I currently work on a 5* eventing yard, I do basic day to day things from mucking out to hacking out horses and travel to shows occasionally
Equine Work Experience
I have my level 2 Equine Care and Management which I studied in college after I had left school completing the year off with distinctions. I had worked for a backing and breaking yard back home in Wales for 5 years before coming to minchinhampton for work early this year in March 2021.
Specialities
In my time working with horses I have handled different range of horses from your youngsters to your top event horses, currently work with a mix of younger and older top event horses.
My job requires a lot of responsibility and confidence, I have had the pleasure of taking some responsibility for the yard on my own on a show day which I had proved i was more than capable to look after the yard and ensure the yard was done to a professional standard
Type of Ride Work
I have had the experience of riding your green to quite happy hacker horses, I’m a confident rider. I can flat a horse to a certain extent, I would like to get more training in with my jumping and flat as I’m a bit rusty in those areas as I haven’t had anything of my own to ride.
Competition Details
I have had the pleasure of going to many shows and events, was the only groom at my old yard back home in Wales so I would be the travelling groom when there was a show. I have had the pleasure of going to two events whilst working for this team. I have also had the pleasure of working on a polo yard for an amazing family that taught me everything I now know, I was again the sole groom (head groom) at the yard and had the pleasure of going to every game and travelling across England.
