Field Farm - "Bring Your Horse on Holiday", Alford, Lincolnshire Field Farm – “Bring Your Horse on Holiday” Let’s just put it out there, Field Farm is awesome! The facilities for your equine friends are superb. There’s an indoor arena (not that we used it while I was there), show jumping arena, and a fab 1.2 mile cross country
Towcester Racecourse successfully bid for an additional National Hunt fixture on the 10th of November 2016. The weather forecast looked to have potential, and I couldn't resist heading over with my camera. The concluding race on the card was an 8-runner Class 5 Maiden Open National Hunt Flat Race. The ground was described as 'Good'.
With a new camera body to test, a lovely forecast (at least from 1400 onwards!) and Towcester Racecourse's final National Hunt racing meeting of the 2014/15 season, it was a bit of a no-brainer to once again take advantage of the course's free admission policy.
A free day last Thursday saw me revisit an old stomping ground for the first time in a good few years and for a rather different reason to those previous visits. I’m talking about Towcester Racecourse, located in my home county of Northamptonshire and about eight miles south-west of Northampton.
