Dual Gold Cup Winning Horse Has Own Web Site &
Information Line For Open Day
Sunday
21 September
Best
Mate’s Open Day on Sunday 21 September, now has its own web
site which provides full details and news of the event: www.bestmate.info
as well as an information line on 01793-710707.
The
Open Day will be a rare opportunity for the public to see Dual Cheltenham
Gold Cup winner, Best Mate, and the other horses at Henrietta’s
training yard at West Lockinge Farm, Wantage, Oxon. It will be the
first time that the yard will be open to the public in five years.
Comments
Henrietta: “Best Mate has been enjoying his Summer break in
the sunshine with his ‘best mate’ Edredon Bleu and has
recently started light exercise to tone him up in preparation for
his first race in November. He will absolutely adore all the attention
of the Open Day and I am sure would be delighted to know that he
now has his own web site!”
Admission
will be £10 on the gate (under 12s free) and proceeds will
go to The Injured Jockeys Fund, The International League for the
Protection of Horses and “The Gentlemen’s Night Out “
– a charity close to the heart of Best Mate’s owner, Jim
Lewis. The latter distributes charitable grants, without deduction
for any overheads or administration, to various causes where they
can make a real difference.
In
addition to a parade of horses and opportunity to tour the yard,
the day will also feature the Aintree Simulator, Falconry and Dog
Agility Displays, Childrens’ Entertainment and Trade Stands.
