Members head to Ogmore Farm to enjoy an unforgettable stable visit at Christian Williams' yard
On a fresh, windy Saturday morning, the lucky members who were selected as competition winners braved the elements to make the trip down to South Wales to see what goes on behind the scenes at Christian Williams' base of operations.
The day began out on Christian's deep sand gallop, situated a short trip away from the stables that house his string of horses, to watch the latest lot get put through their paces. Members had their first opportunity to put their questions to Christian whilst watching the horses work, before the trainer held back Coral Scottish Grand National winner, Kitty's Light, and our very own Cave Article for photo opportunities with those in attendance.
Members were then treated to breakfast at a local café down on the beach front before heading out to see Christian's runners for the weekend galloping on the vast stretch of open sand, the perfect location for the final bit of preparation to be put in prior to a race.
Everyone hopped in their cars when that last bit of work was done for the morning to meet all of his horses back in the barn, as well as a final opportunity to ask the man himself any questions about how he trains his horses, and runs his yard.
Check out the video to see exactly what went on at the stunningly picturesque Ogmore Farm as our members got a peak behind the scenes with trainer, Christian Williams.
