Location
A racehorse training ground near Newmarket
Participants
Expedition
The walk to the station was rather rainy, but otherwise uneventful. Thankfully, the rain stopped by the time I reached Newmarket, and didn't start again while I was there. I walked to an entrance to the field containing the hash, still 1.5km from the hash itself. As far as I had been able to tell online, the field was used for training racehorses during the morning, and open to the public in the afternoon. So, I ventured onto the field. There were two tractors working the field, but neither of the approached me, so I continued on to the hash. The return journey was much the same.
Newmarket is very known for it's racehorses. While I was there, I saw:
- Stables
- Horse-carrying vehicles
- Several training grounds
- A pegasus crossing
- Horse's waste-product
- Horse-chestnut trees
...but not a single horse.
