Club Membership


Do you want a closer involvement in racehorse ownership?
Come down the trainers' yards (even before you join!) - when you want, you'll be made welcome - and see the Club horses power up the gallops, or schooled over hurdles.
Drink champagne in the Owners' room at the racecourse.
Club members were doing that recently at Stratford (27/10/07), Folkestone (22/8/07), Warwick (12/7/07), Hereford (11/4/07) & Guernsey (7/5/07.) Join us for the next occasion - very soon!
