Summer
Barbeque at Beggar's Barn Stud,
Framfield
Saturday
27th August 2011
Our annual
summer celebration was a great success. The weather held and it was
lovely to catch up with the 120 fellow owners who attended. Seeing
the mares and foals in the paddock, especially Aunt Ruby's latest
foal by GREEN DESERT added to the fun. We also walked down to Lin's
yard where DEUX ETOILES, TOBAGO BAY and IL PORTICO are enjoying a
rest. They all looked
fantastic.

The National
Stud and Newmarket's Craven Meeting 'Racing Around
Newmarket'
Wednesday
13th April 2011
We had a fantastic day out at Newmarket
with 34 owners, touring Tattersalls, the National Stud and the
Rowley Mile racecourse for day one of the Craven meeting. Not only
was it great fun but we all learned so much about how the horses we
all love to watch on the track are actually produced. We saw
stallions, mares and foals at the National Stud, including our own
mare AUNT RUBY and her GREEN DESERT foal and they both looked a
picture of health. We then spent the afternoon at the races, and
some even made it back to Tattersalls for the evening sales, where
we were successful in purchasing a colt by SHAMARDAL. He has turned
out to be a top 2 year in 2011.

Gary
Moore Open Day
19th
September 2010
We
were proud to be a part of Gary Moore's first ever Open Day. It was
a big success, all visitors enjoyed themselves and were able to get
a rare insight into how a top racing yard operates. They were able
to watch horses working on the gallops, schooling over hurdles and
fences and to actually meet the horses themselves. The whole Moore
clan was in attendance, including Ryan Moore, champion jockey and
this year's Derby winner. Lots of Heart of the South owners were
there too so it was a great social
occasion!
