TRAINER Michael Dods is holding an open morning at his Piercebridge stables on Sunday, February 3 for anyone who wants to find out more about racehorse ownership.

The trainer, who has ten two-year-olds in a string of 35 horses at his Denton Hall premises, got off the mark for the year when One Domino won impressively over hurdles at Edinburgh last Friday.

Racing partnerships and syndicates have become increasingly popular in recent years, enabling many people to enjoy the thrills of racehorse ownership for a modest outlay.

Mr Dods is currently syndicating a number of horses for the new flat season and shares from 5pc upwards are available.

The programme for the open morning will include a tour of the yard and facilities, a parade of horses and an opportunity to talk to the trainer.

Refreshments will be provided. For more details ring 01995 605790.
