Hally’s Kitchen
Official equine ambassador for Market Rasen Racecourse
Hally’s Kitchen retired in 2020 following an unsuccessful National Hunt career while in training with Justin Landy, she ran nine times under rules and once in a point-to-point without troubling the judge. She is now owned by Samantha Hunt and is excelling in the show ring!
Hally (as she is known) has competed in several high profile shows including the RoR finals at Hickstead and in an SEIB Racehorse to Riding Horse qualifier at Burghley Horse Trials.
Samantha describes Hally as kind and laid-back - she loves cuddles and being groomed!
Retraining of Racehorses
RoR is British Horseracing’s official charity for the welfare of horses that have retired from racing. The charity offers education for owners, establishes retraining practices and promotes the versatility of former racehorses in competitions across various disciplines.
The Horses for Courses scheme, supported by Godolphin, showcases the wide range of disciplines that racehorses go on to enjoy after their racing careers have ended, providing racegoers with an ongoing opportunity to meet and learn more about racing’s biggest stars – the horses!

The pick of several plausible candidates could be SANDSCAPE, who showed much more than in his first two starts in handicap company when fourth at Worcester on his latest start in May, leaving the strong impression that this stiffer test will be very much in his favour Tankardstown Diva is feared most, while cases can also be made for Plumpton winner Ruler of The River and Seahouses.

PLAY SMARTER
The in-form INDEPENDENT JIMMY made a good start to his chasing career when second at Worcester and can go one place better off the same mark. I Am Rocco has made a decent start for current connections and rates the main threat ahead of Great Ballinboris, who took a step back in the right direction at Carlisle in April.

A field of newcomers so the betting should prove informative. Faye Bramley has made a good start to her training career and PUREIS KING, the mount of Sean Bowen, is the suggestion before those market clues are known. Cracks Speed and Luna Grace are other likely types.

The Great British Bonus (GBB) incentivises and rewards with breeding, buying and racing of British-bred fillies by paying out bonuses of up to £100,000 per filly And now with GBBPlus to further incentivise staying fillies and chasing mares, there are more reasons than ever to breed, buy and race British. Majority funded by the HBLB.
