Holding a dual jockey and trainer’s licence is not for the faint hearted. 

Tash Chambers is one of a handful of females doing just that. 

Tash struggled with weight through her apprenticeship, wasting to make rides every week.  A two year break followed, before making a come back in the North West. 

Tash put in the hard yards when she moved west, including a pretty scary fall at Julia Creek.  

Despite more downs than ups, Tash’s love of winning has always kept her coming back. 

Faced with a lack of opportunities, Tash didn’t let that stop her jockey career, taking out a trainer’s licence to create her own chances. 

And it has been full steam ahead since. Tash has had runners in high profile provisional races, won the Pallarenda Stakes and had metro starters.
