Prefer national hunt to the flat. Love both the November and March a Cheltenham. Always go to the fighting fifth at Newcastle. As for 5he flat we go to York for a couple of days for the ebor. Then there's the odd days thrown in here and there. |

Clyde here....
The family business was racing. We bred and owned racehorses. I grew up around them and on the racecourses of the UK. I spent time with many of the UK celebs of the 80's, as most were into horseracing. We bred for the flat. One thing I will say is that my mum always said, if she had her time again, she would not do it, purely because of the cruelty, pain, and death that follows racing around. So now, I never watch it, despite breeding hundreds of winners and delivering hundreds of foals in my life. |

I'm an owner of 2 racehorses. Grew up on a farm and was always surrounded by Arabian Stallions (show horses) but have had an interest in Horseracing from a very young age. Both horses are based in Cheshire and will be arranging public stable visits in the summer.
I'm localish to you, Bamber Bridge, Preston |

I worked in racing and breeding for decades and never go to the races for similar reasons!
