IMPORTANT UPDATE: Following advice from The British Horse Racing Authority regarding restrictions that have been put in place to try and limit the spread of equine flu, we're unfortunately no longer able to offer pony rides or pony racing at our Superhero Family Raceday on Tuesday 21st July. The safety and wellbeing of all equines is paramount, and we fully support the measures in place to help protect horses and ponies during this time. Due to the current vaccination programme and bio-security measures in licensed training yards, horse racing can continue.
