Happy #NationalRacehorseWeek! Wonderful visit to Olly Murphy’s stable this morning. Loved meeting first time stable-goers and racing fans when they entered the yard! The horses were super - shout out to Resplendent Grey! Massive thank you to the team💙 Great British Racing

Awfully sad news, far too young to lose a promising star and already such accomplished horse💔 Also shocked at him suffering from such a catastrophic case of laminitis, so unusual. A little bit about the disease and some questions to be answered 🧵⬇️

The Cornbury Horse Trials RoR class I tweeted about a few weeks ago has a super line up - including one of mine and my mum’s favourites, Soupy Soups! I think this is such a wonderful initiative! cornburyhousehorsetrials.co.uk/news/entries-r…

Reminiscing about when Percy and I pretended to be show jumpers. Can’t believe it has been four years. If only I could turn back the clock and have the opportunity to ride such cool horses again like I did that summer with Oly too! I got very lucky with those pair!🩷

Sad news that Niall has to retire, a very talented jockey! Wishing him well! Some very good young riders have hung up with saddles lately!

When I wrote for The Times at the 2024 Cheltenham Festival about the poor racegoer experience, tickets were £100 (Day 1-3) & £117 (Day 4) on the gate. Astounded to just find out that, 2 years later, that’s now £126 & £149. It’s only £100/117 if booked before 4th December😳

Gutted to see that Hurlerontheditch died in July. Such a likeable horse to watch over obstacles, especially that day at Warwick in November 2023. A spectacular round of jumping apart from the last.

I’ve picked up my tickets! It was such a brilliant event last year and was the perfect opportunity to have discussions and debates with people across the industry! Anyone interested in racing is welcome, remember!

Just had such a great swim. Got dared to do a length of butterfly by a chap and the lifeguard kindly gave me some tips on how to breathe properly. Nice to know my technique is still ‘spot-on’ after all the hours I put in practicing (and money mum spent!) when I was a kid!🏊‍♀️

Rishi Persad I understand that you’re taking a chance when owning a race horse but when owners feel like they are being taken the piss out of with higher fees and lower prize money it’s simply time to get out. You can’t have a horse winning 3-4 times in a season and not breaking even. As for
