AJA sponsors new amateur race in Jersey 12th July

14-05-2015

For any amateur jockey who has never visited the Channel Isles, an ideal opportunity now exists within our racing calendar!  Sunday 12th July is Champion Hurdle Day at Les Landes and includes the AJA’s inaugural running of a 1m 2f flat handicap for 3 year olds and up rated 0-65.  The race will be the 5th race on the card at 5:10 pm.  We need trainer support for this race with limited horses available on the island so please persuade your trainer to enter and spread the word!

Les Landes is a popular racecourse with many English jockeys including amateur Freddy Tett who rode 6 winners there last summer and has already enjoyed a double there last weekend. Serena Brotherton also travelled over with City Ground last summer to provide Mick Easterby with his first-ever winner in Jersey.
