Quality racehorses on show at Open Day

The event is one of the best mornings out in the county diary, with the chance to see Castle Stables, meet the trainer and staff, and above all see the quality racehorses there.

This long-established event raised significant money for local charities. This year the three charitable beneficiaries are St Mary the Virgin Church, Burpham; Moorcroft Race-horse Welfare Centre which is based at Slinfold near Horsham and Chestnut Tree House children's hospice at Poling.

The Open Morning is again being sponsored by Mrs Philippa Cooper's Normandie Stud, which is at Kirdford, and some horses bred at the stud are in training at Castle Stables and will be on view.

Admission charges will be 5 for an adult and 3 for children of 12 years or under. There will be a programme on sale, price 1.
