Q&A with TIC Cadet Taylor

Cadet Taylor Turner is spending her stable placement with Godolphinย where sheโ€™s learning just how much work goes into preparing a horse for a race. Itโ€™s led to Taylor getting to ride out on the pony as she prepares for the next step toward her ultimate goal of riding track work.

The best part of my day is getting to pony the horses out onto the track. I love getting to work with the horses and riders on a different level and really enjoy knowing Iโ€™m helping them all have a much smoother, safer ride.

Iโ€™ve realised that there is so much more that goes into sending a horse to a race then I first thought. So many different components are involved as well as so many people doing work behind the scenes just to get a single horse to one race. This has also opened my eyes to the many other opportunities available that I previously didnโ€™t know about in the racing industry.

Knowing Iโ€™ll get to work with my favourite horses every day and do what I love is definitely my biggest motivator to get out of bed in the mornings.

My least favourite job of the day is digging out the boxes. It can be a very stinky job, and wet sawdust can get very heavy!

My current ambition is to become a full time track rider. I am currently on the pony at work, so Iโ€™m slowly getting there!
