Arthur Ashford was a successful and well loved local vet but his true passion lay in racing. He was an owner and breeder and enjoyed his racing here at Plumpton.

Arthur owned and bred Carly Bay who frequently raced here, winning three times, twice over hurdles and once over fences.

Arthur also owned and bred several other horses that raced here including Polly Major, Polly Minor and Bonnie Major. His horses were trained by Gerry Enright with whom Arthur had a great rapport.

Arthur’s daughters Jane and Gilly are here today to celebrate their father’s racing life in this special way
