Michael Morris, who does a brilliant job of looking after our Point-to-Point course, has been busy stemming the fences ready for the first fixture later in the year.

They are looking very smart! 👏

Although this comes a little later than planned, our committee has been busy with the Northumberland County Show and other fundraising events, so we wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s Haydon P2P such a tremendous success. 💙🐎

We were once again blessed with glorious sunshine and it was wonderful to welcome 254 guests to enjoy hospitality on the day.

The racing provided plenty of excitement across all six races, with all of our Haydon junior and senior jockeys putting in excellent performances. The day could not have ended on a better note, with committee member Charlotte celebrating victory in the final race.

First and foremost, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to all of our sponsors. Your generous support is vital to the success of the event and we are incredibly grateful for your continued commitment.

We would also like to thank everyone who attended, supported, volunteered, helped behind the scenes and contributed in any way.

We look forward to seeing you again next year.

The Haydon P2P Committee 💙

Hollywood Harman wins the Ladies Open under Pippa Brown
Sponsored by Sara Mather InSync Physiotherapy 💙

Back down in grade and carrying much less weight than she had been in hunter chases earlier this season, Hollywood Harmon (Pippa Brown) got back on the winning trail in the 2m4f Insync Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic Ladies Open Race. Given a positive ride, the nine-year-old made all the running and, despite being hard pressed on both sides in a driving finish, was always doing enough to see off a determined challenge from Second Subaltern (Venetia Thompson) by a neck, with the rallying Watch Law (Joanna Walton) a neck away in third.

The winner is owned and trained by Brandsby-based Alexander Wilson, who said: ‘’She loves Cartmel and might head there next for a Hunters’ Chase on May 27.’’

Unfortunately, since this interview, The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) mandated that all Hunter Chase events from May 20th onwards will not go ahead, due to a significant outbreak of Equine Influenza.

Our committee were delighted to see Morpeth trainer Kate Leckenby in the winners enclosure this weekend! 🏆

Orderly claimed the win in the Jacksons Of Hexham Maiden Race under Paddy Barlow - congratulations to all connections. 🏇

Long time leader Claramount (Amy Milburn) was headed after three out by Yuledoforme (Jack Teal), with Orderly handily placed just off the pace. Yuledoforme and Orderly then had a prolonged duel from the last before Barlow’s mount edged in front inside the last fifty yards to score by half-a-length, with the same margin back to Boolamore Glory (Hannah Wainwright) in third. The winner’s next assignment is likely to be at this week’s Goffs UK Doncaster Sales. When asked how she acquired the four-year-old, who ran in a Punchestown Maiden three weeks ago, Kate replied: ‘’He came from the same source as Hardy Oscar, and it’s not what you know but who you know.’’

Sadly it wasn't quite the fairytale win we all hoped for Robyn & Ingle Harry Brown, running their last race together on home turf at Haydon P2P, but they still ran a fantastic race for 3rd place and claimed the overall points 138cm champion trophy.

Well done Rob, we are all very proud of you and mum! 🏇
