Trainer kept his racehorses on the move during big freeze
DESPITE deep snow surrounding his racing stables at Sullington for more than a week, racehorse trainer Richard Rowe and his staff fought a constant battle with the elements to make sure the 25-strong string was kept ticking over.
The snow couldn't have come at a worse time for him.
His horses had run into winning form and were doing well until jumps fixtures were abandoned because of sub zero temperatures and relentless snow.
His yard and gallops are at the foot of the downs, down a long, steep lane but dedicated stable staff took immense risks to make sure they turned up every day to ride out and look after their horses.
