Awdry Bailey & Douglas were proud to support this very worthwhile event now in its third year which took place on Sunday 3 August 2014 in aid of Greatwood and Wiltshire Air Ambulance on the fabulous Barbury Castle Estate.
The Races
The event was staged by the Rotary Club of Marlborough and District 1100. There was a choice of 3 races:
The chasers gallop – a 5mile race
The thoroughbred canter – a 2.5mile race
The novice’s non-handicap – a 2.5 mile race.
The weather was sunny, no horses and runners enjoyed the day!
The weather was lovely on the day of the run but the day before it was pouring with rain!
Prizes were presented by Nigel Bunter of Barbury Estates.
£3,000 raised!
Monies raised in total were £3,000 which will be presented to Greatwood Children’s Charity and Wiltshire Air Ambulance with a small amount retained by Marlborough & District and Swindon Phoenix Rotary Clubs to support small local projects and charities.
