Grace Meeks

For the last 7 years my main interest has been mainly equestrian based. I have progressed in the show jumping arena with both my pony's and now my 16.2 British warm blood, Tonic. I have been competing in unafilliated show jumping whilst I have been producing Tonic, as I bought him as a 5yo baby who had only just been backed. I have been producing Tonic for the last two years, giving him experience by taking him to lots of different venues and competitions.

Recently in the last 6 months, I progressed into competing in British show jumping as I felt Tonic was ready. My first affiliated competition with Tonic was at Aintree Equestrian Centre, and we placed first. Since then we have qualified for many shows including Aintree British Show jumping Finals, Bliss of London Novice Championships and Hickstead Championships.

My family and I came to Polo Valley in 2016, and we did a week long polo experience, and have revisited several times since. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Polo Valley; I love everything about the business and life style.

I would love to carry out work experience at Polo Valley, because of my passion for horses, interest in polo and my growing knowledge of business. Over the next few years, I would like to gain as much experience with entrepreneur's, mixing their passions and business.
