Following the closure of Hackwood Park, we're delighted to host the Vine & Craven's former Easter meeting as our season opener. Seven races promise large fields and some competitive racing as a prep for the valuable International the following month.
Now in its third year, the International fixture is providing a platform for Pointing fans to showcase the quality of young stock entering the sport en route to professional Jump racing. Two of last year's winners were sold handsomely at auction subsequently, one joined Alan King next door, and several other runners were traded within days of the event. The competition is fierce, ensuring big fields for the most valuable programme in the sport's UK calendar, worth £5,750. Come and see the best that Pointing has to offer as we pitch the best of British against the best from across the Irish Sea.
The Vine & Craven's second meeting in mid-February is part of the countdown to the following month's Festival. Expect t see a few Foxhunter types concluding their preparation, alongside some typically big fields around Barbury's spectator-friendly circuit.
Springtime at Barbury brings an altogether different atmosphere as the downs take on the appearance of a country fair for our final fixture for the Tedworth. Featuring the Tedworth Gold Cup over 3m 6f, there's ample opportunity to shop and socialize at this popular end to Barbury's season.
