Daily maintenance of the deep sand gallop ensures it is of equal depth the entire way round. The deep sand is a vital part of the racehorses training.
BETSY BOO and SOFANA went on a day out for a jump and run up the gallop.

BETSY BOO and MISS CALAMITY JANE having a canter up the carpet gallop for a change of scene following a lot of work on the deep sand recently. This keeps them fresh and having a stretch is beneficial in their training.
MISS CALAMITY JANE enjoying her day in the school. She is continuing to impress following in the footsteps of her sister last year.
3 year old CALIBRI BLUE is a natural. The bond between Will and Blue is undeniable and both have a lot of trust in each other. We have high hopes for this horse as he comes into his first season.
FARMERS FUTURE making the easy fix jumps look small. This horse is experienced and knows what he’s doing when it comes to jumping. Will is looking forward to getting him on the track in a couple of months.
SION HILL popping over the smaller fences. Continuing her rehabilitation after her injury last year, she has built up her muscles and is now looking great. She has a long road ahead of her but heading in the right direction.
SION HILL and FARMERS FUTURE enjoying the sunshine today.
Some work on the deep sand for SION HILL and COLIBRI BLUE.
The deep sand is great for the horses to work on strengthening their muscles whilst working at a slower pace.
COLIBRI BLUE caught having a very deep sleep this morning 💤 Dreaming of leading over the final fence perhaps 🤔
