The Racehorse Sanctuary hosted its second charity race day on Monday, November 18th at Plumpton. We were thrilled to see so many loyal supporters and to welcome many new faces.
Lunch at the Final Fence restaurant was excellent, and it offered a fantastic view of the course. Our guests enjoyed tipster Colin Brown’s insights on the race card, and quite a few were lucky enough to collect their winnings after each race.
The “Heads or Tails” game was as entertaining as ever, alongside a raffle and a live auction. Tara kindly took on the role of auctioneer and did a brilliant job.
Pete the Feat, our retired racehorse, was a hit in his stable, graciously meeting many people who remembered him from his racing days.
The event had a wonderful atmosphere, and we’ve received great feedback. All in all, everyone had a fabulous day.
Our horses are looking fantastic, which is especially pleasing as we head into winter. Recently arrived Ollie and Run have settled in nicely and are now retired, set to enjoy the rest of their days with us.
Mouse has been re-homed and is happy with her new keeper, Cailin. They are truly a perfect pair. Cailin is a talented young rider preparing for several outings in 2025.
A big thank you from all at the Racehorse Sanctuary and Rehoming Centre must go to Joanna Wyatt from The ROG for her generous donation of £1,000 on race day.
