Nicola and Frog's retraining journey is nothing short of remarkable, interesting and so relatable. To say they have had an 'interesting' journey' would be a ver big understatement, but what is most important, and interesting is that Nic has not only learnt stuff about her left, but also how Frog, as a horse, responds, and how to find the way forward in all scenarios.

We talk about; kissing spine surgery, confidence with; hacking, long reining, venturing out for the first time, finding your home team and everything in between

I hope you enjoy this episode

We, horses and humans are asymmetric. How we deal/train and develop these asymmetries to become the 'best version' of straightness that we can find, is a bit of a minefield.

With our former racehorses they predominantly run in one direction and have their own version of 'in the middle' or 'straight.' How do we approach these asymmetries, and what as riders should we do to help find 'the middle'

The Retraining of Racehorses Charity has been established for 25 years. In that 25 years the numbers of members has exploded and grown year after year. I want to make it SUPER CLEAR that this is not an interview as a 'promotional piece.' It's a conversation that I asked to happen to be able to create a better understanding of the depth of work and support that the RoR do and put in to be able to support all members and safe guard these horses post racing.

The volume of support and education that the RoR offers is something that you don't find in many organisations and the care, wellbeing and security net provided to these horses post racing, is just, quite frankly, phenomenal.

Please enjoy, share and if you have a former racehorse and currently rents signed up as member (its free) please do so! (Link below)
