Camille Mamier and Jodi Matthews were selected to participate in the Together for Racing International/Lexington Sister Cities Student exchange programme. Mamier will represent the AFASEC from France. She currently works for Deauville-based trainer Stephane Cerulis and will spend her summer placement in Newmarket. Matthews, who represents the British Racing School, will head to Kentucky for the Breeders’ Cup later this year and then to Florida to further her experience. Matthews is employed by trainer Ed Bethell.
Anna Powell, Development Director for TfRI, said “We were thrilled with the interest and the number of strong applications we received, especially from France. We are looking forward to facilitating these exchanges, collaborating with Lexington Sister Cities and the racing schools. The exchange programme is a great way to retain our young and talented staff by giving them new opportunities to share best practices, to learn from other racing jurisdictions and bring back what they have learned to their respective racing nations.”
