Taylor was only the second Australian to represent her country in dressage[1] when she competed at the Seoul 1988 Olympics in the individual event. Riding Crown Law, she finished in 34th place.[2][3]

Taylor spent 50 years acting as a dressage judge in Australia, resigning in 2018.[4] She retired from dressage competition in 2007 and lives in Waterloo Corner, South Australia.[1]

Her contribution to dressage in Australia has been recognised by her appointment to the Equestrian Australia Hall of Fame.[5]
