Dressage/ livery/ stud: Making feeds, feeding fields and yard AM/PM, turnout/ bringing in, mucking out, grooming/ tacking up for the rider, field/ yard maintenance (e.g. painting, fixing fencing, filling in holes), working the stallions/ liveries from the ground, riding a young Cob, taking hay bales to the fields on the quad bike, skipping out, poo picking, assisting the vets, cleaning the walker at the end of the day.

I've had quite a lot of experience with stallions, broodmares and their youngsters. At the dressage yard, I had to turnout their stallions, broodmares and foals. as well as that I used to lunge the stallions using different lunging aids. At a previous yard I was sole charge for a few months. Apart from the professional rider that would ride the stallions, I was working alone. As I've been working on each, I have always had high standards. I'm very organised and hate leaving a mess behind.

I've been riding for 17 years on and off, having lessons on basic dressage and I used to do a lot of jumping but haven't in a while. One of my subjects in college was riding, we worked up to level 3/4 BHS riding.

I started riding my 4yr old OTTB at the end of December 2022 after doing a lot of ground work with him since I got him in 2021.
