"Even as a stallion he was the kindest horse in the world, he was so unfairly treated."
Princess Zahra has revealed Shergar was killed “in an awful way” within days of being taken back in 1983...
The 6th race on our card tomorrow is The Stan Hayhurst Memorial Handicap Chase.
Stan who passed away at the age of 91 in July 2025 will always be remembered for partnering Kerstin to victory in the 1958 Cheltenham Gold Cup. Stan rode his first winner Carpact at Hexham in 1950 and went on to record 301 winners in a successful career, retiring from the saddle in 1972.
Stan later served as a part time judge then a steward at Hexham and other local tracks before finally retiring in 2007.
We are pleased to remember Stan with tomorrow’s race.
