This job required me to be in at 4 AM to begin cleaning stalls. After the stalls were done, I was in charge of setting tack, putting on the appropriate equipment, including bell boots or polo bandages. I also had to make sure horses were cooled out appropriately, and baths were given. After training hours, I had a group of horses that I was in charge of grooming and applying the appropriate bandages. I was in charge of making sure the appropriate amount of feed and supplements was given to each horse.
