Ahead of the 2022/23 Jumps Season, Hannah Bevan takes a trip to the beautiful Barbury Castle stables in Wiltshire, as preparation gears up for the new campaign.
As the training HQ for Alan King, the Scottish-born trainer has now saddled over 15 winners at the Cheltenham Festival, and has trained winners at every racecourse in England, both on the Flat and over Jumps. An ideal man to follow with your Placepot picks this season.
The most recent of those Festival winners was the Arkle champ Edwardstone, who King updates us on, and also gives us the latest on his other stable stars including Sceau Royal and North Lodge to name just a few.
