Riding and caring for race horses

I’ve worked full time in racing for three years. In this time I have taken horses to the races, held and trotted up for the vet and ridden. I’ve learnt about the welfare of horses and skills of bandaging, plaiting, basic equine first aid, loading. I’m a quick but very efficient worker and pick up things quickly. I have a general love for horses so they always come first.

I have worked with horses since I was nine. First I started riding on the flat and then had lots of jump lessons and local competitions. I’ve also attended shows to groom for many friends and family. I then left school with all my GCSEs but wanted to follow my path with horses so I attended the British racing school. I have since been working with race horses for three years. I have learnt so much and dealt with stallions and young stock as well as fit in work race horses.

I have experience in riding horses on the flat (schooling), show jumping, cross country, flat racing and jump horses. I have ridden away ponies and 2yo race horses after being broke. I don’t have experience in breaking but happy to learn.

I have competed at low level show jumping and dressage. But have been involved in going to bigger competitions and shows with friends and family affiliated and unaffiliated. I’ve also been to the races many times having to organise everything myself and pack all the stuff to go with me and the horse.
