Want a look into a polo star and racehorse wrangler's life and home?
Bianca Drake seems like a rescuer at heart. Rather than breeding a fleet of polo ponies, she rides ex-racehorses, arguing that they are versatile and loving well beyond their brief racing lives.
Drake lives in close to the stables in Cambridge, with her husband, Kiwi Polo legend Kit Brooks, their 18-month-old daughter, Harper, two dogs and about 80 horses.
