Does anyone know of a couple of stables that could be rented out for a few hours very close to Wincanton racecourse (around 4th May time - not sure on date at present).

Needed for two racing ponies who will be racing, there and unless they get a chance to relax in a stable close by to the course, will be forced to spend around 8 hours in the horsebox.

Both ponies are fully vaccinated and will need to be in a yard where Jockey Club Code of Practice is carried out - i.e. no diseases on the yard and resident horses vaccinated.

If you can help at all, can you let me know and I can pass the details on. Thanks.
 
Can they not be kept at the tracks stables? Surely they would not have such a full race card that they wouldnt have any empty stables. Ive once took a filly to brighton racecourse and there was a goat in the stable!!!!!! and it wasnt for company
 
Unfortunately the racecourses very rarely allow racing ponies access to the stabling before the races, hence why the plea. Yesterday, the two of them raced locally to them at Cheltenham, and even with their amount of stables, the pair of them still had to stand for a few hours in the horsebox.
