Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 10 Journalists Share Posted April 10 The Peter O'Sullevan Lambourn Open Day will be held on Good Friday, April 18, this year. Last year's event was cancelled due to waterlogging. Fans will be able to visit over 20 training yards in Lambourn from 9a-1p, including Nicky Henderson's legendary Seven Barrows, home to Constitution Hill (GB) (Blue Bresil {Fr}) and Jonbon (Fr) (Walk In The Park {Ire}), among others. There will also be the Parade of Equine Heros, sponsored by Windsor Clive International that afternoon. Some of the big names in the parade are champion chasers Altior (Ire) (High Chaparral {Ire}) and Sprinter Sacre (Fr) (Network {Ger}), as well as Cheltenham Gold Cup hero Coneygree (GB) (Karinga Bay {GB}). There will also be the Carisbrooke Stud Celebrity Showjumping, featuring stars such as Nico de Boinville, James Bowen and A.P. McCoy. Tickets are £15 per person with children under 12 free. If you are attending only the afternoon portion of the Lambourn Open Day, tickets are £10 per person. Mark Smyly, chairman of the Lambourn Open Day, said, “We're thrilled to welcome everyone back to Lambourn for this year's event, especially after the disappointment of last year's cancellation. The Open Day is not only a chance for fans to meet some of the sport's biggest stars, but it also serves as a vital fundraiser for the Lambourn community and horse racing as a whole. We're looking forward to seeing the yards buzzing and hope visitors enjoy everything the day has to offer.” For tickets and additional information, please visit the Lambourn Open Day website.
