I secured my Creative Writing degree from Wolverhampton University in 2012, and I've been immersed in sports writing ever since. Horse racing has become my specialty in recent years. I love the down-to-earth nature of the people in the business, and the compassion they show for the horses in their care.

If I were a racehorse, I'd be former Welsh Grand National winner, Elegant Escape. A great, big, plodding chaser, who prefers cold, damp conditions. Will probably never win the Gold Cup, but that doesn't mean we can't give it a damn good try!;
