Mildmay Racing horses in training

Each year we usually have between 10- 12 horses in training with Andrew Balding, Harry Charlton, Clive Cox, Charles Hill, Ed Walker, Tom Ward or Patrick Chamings.

The horses are owned by Mildmay Racing or one of the associated partnerships. Information on the horses is shared between the syndicates by regular emails and everyone is encouraged to support all the horses. We provide one or two owners badges per share but these are not always taken up so frequently there are spare owners badges available on a first come first served basis.
