ExerciseWe have a private ten-furlong grass gallop (and an all-weather gallop in the pipeline). 1966 Derby winner Charlottown, trained by Gordon Smyth and ridden by Scobie Breasley, was trained on the private gallops now owned by the Best family.
Importantly, the South Downs also have naturally-occurring exercise grounds, and the undulating terrain gets horses fit whilst giving them a change of scenery and thus keeping them happy in their work. The daily routine of exercise takes in fitness work across this part of the South Downs. SchoolingThe schooling grounds are a variety of newly-built hurdles and chase fences, which incorporate baby fences to help to school young horses just setting out on their National Hunt careers. A horsewalker and a loose schooling ring are extra facilities used in preparing horses for training and schooling young horses over obstacles for the first time.
