H&H columnist Katie is a top showing producer who is based in Essex. She has won the supreme championship at both Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) and the Royal International (RIHS). As well as being The Queen’s show horse producer, she is an esteemed judge and accredited coach.
AS soon as I’ve backed a baby, I take them out hacking on the lanes. It’s the most important part of a horse’s training process. I let them go forward in a happy yet controlled way; I take them out of that goldfish bowl and let them see the world.
It can be too easy to tack up and head into the school for 20 minutes each day, but this can be monotonous for horses and this is when they become resistant. Routine is important but variety in their work is essential.
I always tell young people not just to give 100%, but double it and give 200%. If you want to be successful, you have to listen, watch and learn. Find people you respect as trainers and never be frightened to ask questions. Realise you’re never perfect, and always look ahead to the next goal.
