A SAYING I often heard growing up was ‘Choose a job you enjoy and you’ll never work a day in your life’ and this is certainly true for many who work in the equine industry.

I was fortunate to grow up surrounded by horses, and some of my fondest childhood memories are of days spent at the races. Coming from a small breeding farm at home, I learnt to appreciate the hard work and dedication of those working in the industry, as well as the highs and lows that come with the game.
