For a limited number of dates this summer, you can have the chance to meet the legendary Frankel along with other resident stallions standing at Banstead Manor Stud, Juddmonte’s impressive breeding operation here in the UK.
Led by Lady Jane Cecil, this full day’s tour takes in the Frankel lounge at the Rowley Mile Racecourse before visiting the hallowed gallops where you have the chance to see some well-known faces.
After visiting a trainer’s yard to see what goes on behind the scenes in a typical day, it is then off for a two course meal at the award winning Squires Restaurant at the Bedford Lodge Hotel.
After lunch you will have the opportunity to meet unbeaten champion racehorse Frankel along with the stud’s other resident elite stallions. This tour is an amazing opportunity for all Frankel fans and followers and each ticket includes a gift bag containing exclusive Frankel memorabilia.
A donation of £10 from the sale of each ticket will be given to East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH), for whom Frankel is their ambassador, it being a favourite of the late Sir Henry Cecil.
