Queensland Off-The-Track proudly introduces Jenna Arnett as a QOTT Acknowledged Retrainer.
Jenna has long been involved in the racing and equestrian industries, starting her first job as a stable hand and track work rider at 15 years of age. With over 30 years riding experience, Jenna has fox hunted, competed in dressage, show jumping and eventing, as well as campdrafting and rodeo timed events.
Jenna’s life with horses has taken her all over the world, including working in hunting and show jumping stables in Ireland, caring for World Equestrian Games endurance horses in Florida, dressage training in Spain and completing the worlds longest annual charity horse ride – the Gobi Gallop in Mongolia.
Retraining and competing on numerous thoroughbreds throughout her equestrian career, Jenna is passionate about assisting racehorses adjust smoothly and successfully to second careers post-racing. In becoming a QOTT Acknowledged Retrainer, Jenna looks forward to working with racing trainers and owners to facilitate the successful transition of racehorses into pleasure or performance homes, and further supporting new owners of retired racehorses through the Queensland Off-The-Track Subsidised Lessons Program.
“I am grateful to have had so many amazing interactions with horses over the years. With my understanding of the racing industry and the thoroughbred breed, I am able to use my experience to address any issues that horses may present with. Throughout the retraining process, I ensure that each horse is appropriately educated so that they enter the next stage of their journey confident and capable, no matter what discipline they are best suited to.”
