Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 4, 2018 Journalists Share Posted September 4, 2018 This year’s Trainers Commentary Competition will be held Sept. 22 in Newmarket and will see local trainers and racing journalists try their hand at calling a race for charity. The sixth confirmed participants are trainers Charlie Fellowes, George Scott, Richard Spencer and Ed Vaughan, as well as journalist Lee Mottershead and presenter Hayley Moore. A seventh and final participant will be announced at a later date. Each participant will raise funds in aid of Newmarket Open Weekend beneficiaries, and the top fundraiser will receive the Julian Wilson Memorial Trophy and lunch for six at the Rowley Mile’s Champions Gallery at the 2019 Craven meeting. Fellowes, chairman of the Open Weekend, said, “The Trainers Commentary Competition is a fantastic annual occasion and we are very pleased to welcome another round of eager participants for 2018. We are particularly excited to welcome Lee Mottershead and Hayley Moore, who excel in their day-to-day roles but who are both keen to experiment with commentating on a race.” “Once again our commentary competition is raising money for a range of worthy causes in Newmarket and I am calling on the support of the racing community to help us raise as much money as possible. Newmarket Racecourses has again generously offered a fantastic prize to the winner and we hope that provides participants with an added incentive to raise money via their Just Giving pages. I would like to thank all this year’s participants for their time and commitment to the competition in support of the beneficiaries for the 32Red Newmarket Open Weekend–may the best man or woman win!” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
