Kim is a local racehorse trainer here in The Cotswolds based at nearby Thorndale Farm and has enjoyed success at the highest level. He has trained winners of the “Holy Trinity” Grand National Mr Frisk, Champion Hurdle Alderbrook and Gold Cup Master Oats. He was also only one of 6 UK based trainers to train a winner at the last Cheltenham Festival when Chianti Classico triumphed in the Ultima Handicap Chase.
An amusing and entertaining speaker Kim will recall the ups and downs of his training career and provide an insight to the world of horse racing ahead of the Cheltenham Festival.

At 19 Archie has made a successful start to his professional cricketing career and will tell us about his journey so far and share his memories of that 1st team debut whilst setting out his plans for a career in cricket with out local county.
Join us for a welcome drink at 6:30pm before enjoying a three course dinner interspersed with stories from the horse racing and cricketing world.
