STABLE LASS: RIDING OUT AND MUCKING IN

Gemma Hogg takes us into the closed world of a top racing yard, from the elation of having several winners in one day to the almost indescribable grief of losing a horse. As a teenager fresh out of racing college, Gemma had to adapt to living away from home for the first time, long hours, hard physical labour and treacherous weather. She describes the exhilaration of riding a racehorse for the first time, what happens when a horse takes against you, and the characters around the yard.
