Sunglasses required on a glorious day at Larkhill as Sarah Dawson increases her lead in the AGA All Comers championship

Five minutes after arriving I was scurrying back to the car to retrieve my sunglasses and my brand new selfie stick! Those who know me well will be aware that I rarely miss an opportunity for a selfie (or a piece of cake, Heather), but this particular selfie wasn’t my idea…

There’s a warm welcome for the AGA man in South Dorset on a very special day for Lilly and Maddie

These point-to-point fixtures just keep getting better and better, and this one at Milborne St Andrew left me with a really warm glow which lasted all the way home – just as well really, because it was cold, very cold! However, that did not seem to concern the large, good natured crowd and it certainly […]

Point-to-point horse racing with a difference as the Heythrop provide something for everyone on a superb day in the Cotswolds

We had a good feeling as we headed down the Fosse Way to Cocklebarrow Farm on Sunday (25th January), in fact such was the good mood that we were even singing along to Steve Wright’s Sunday Love Songs (we like Wrighty but we don’t usually do love songs!).

The AGA series has had a flying start so losing Horseheath was a real blow, and it left us looking at a weekend without an AGA ladies open race. That was not an option so a replacement was sought and an additional fixture in the Devon & Cornwall area was added, with the Mid Devon at […]

Rain and mud at Alnwick but there are smiles all round as we enjoy another AGA cracker

The north-east weather men had promised us sunshine by the time the first race was under way, but instead we had rain, mist, more rain, black and grey clouds and loads of mud, with the sun finally appearing as we started our journey home! But that didn’t matter, and it all just added to the […]

AGA series off and running – what a ‘Qracker’!

First AGA race of the season lives up to expectations, huge crowd enjoy nine quality races, lots of talking points, Khyber Kim brings a touch of class, the sun shines all day and new AGA hats are all the rage! The weekend edition of Pointing Plus (an 8 page pull-out in the Racing Plus) had […]
