Description

Part I

Beginning with an informative close encounter of the Racehorse Training Yard in Hampshire, where you will meet the Racehorse Ownership Manager and see the Racehorses work on the training track in the fresh early morning mist.

You`ll be shown how they train the horses, what they are fed and the techniques used to select the best race for the horse, whilst all the time what it takes to keep these fine specimens in the highest physical condition.

Then it`s off for lunch and the chance to hear some of the highlights and low points of Owning a Racehorse:

- 10.30 am Arrive at training yard
- Introduction with Racehorse Ownership Manager
- Meet your Racehorse
- Oversee your Racehorse put through its paces on the training track

Part II

Part two will be a separate day at the races where we can promise the adrenaline will be racing as fast around your body as your horse will be around the course. With a bit of luck you will end up in the winners enclosure.

On arrival at the Racecourse you simply need make your way to the Owners entrance where you will receive your exclusive Owners badge. This badge unlike others when you go racing, entitles you access to Owner only areas. Make your way to the Owners private bar where you will meet up once again with the Racehorse Ownership Manager who will bring you up to date with your horse`s final preparations. The excitement, atmosphere and anticipation start to build.

When your horse is due to race you are invited into the Parade Ring. Here the prestigious feeling of owning a Racehorse is truly felt as you meet the Jockey and go over the final tactics. The Jockeys mount up and make their way out on to the course. Before the off, should you wish, you`ve time to place a quick bet using your `first hand` information as an Owner. And then the starter raises his flag, your heart is pumping and adrenaline flowing through your body, and they`re off!

- 14:00 Arrive at Racecourse Park in the Owners / Trainers Car Park
- Pick up your exclusive Owners badge at the Owners entrance
- Make your way to the Owners & Trainers bar
- When its time for your horse to race head into the Parade Ring, meet the jockey and go through the final race tactics
