Life motto:

Patience and love for your horses are the two greatest assets a trainer can have.

How long have you been riding and for how long?

I have been riding since i was 7 years old , …48 years.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by always wishing to be the best trainer I can be for my horses sake . I workout so I can sit light and balanced, I eat well so have good energy, I meditate daily so I am emotionally centred . I love to sit and watch my horses eat contentedly and hug them goodnight . I enjoy competing every know and then to test that my heart is in the right place and my horses are happy and content when we are under pressure .

How many hours a day do you spend at the stables?

I spend 12 hours a day at the stables , sometimes a little more. We used to run a much bigger operation and do 18 hours very busy days so now life feels like one big holiday!
