Katie Price has a lot on her mind lately. The glamorous model is multitasking with home and career. Other than her passion for hubby Petre Andre, there is yet another love of her life, her horse.

Katie Price a.k.a Jordan has a new dream these days: to bring an Olympic gold for horse riding. Katie, who has had a life-long love of horses, has her heart set on representing Team GB in equestrian events at the 2012 Olympics.

The model-turned-businesswoman is in training on her horse, Glamour Girl, five times a week. The stunner was last month snubbed for not being posh enough to attend the Cartier polo event but Katie, 30, believes the horse scene is already becoming more welcoming of her efforts to give the sport a wider audience.

"I have the Horse Of The Year show coming up and I"m going to buy a horse now and aim for the Olympics," the Daily Express quoted her, as telling breakfast television host Lorraine Kelly. Katie added: "I went to the Burghley Horse show the other week, which you could say is rather snobby, but they were really welcoming."

Well, surely Katie Price is one ambitious celebrity.
