RP SUNDAY SPECIAL

PALACE HOUSE SOON TO BE TRANSFORMED
PROJECT ON LOCATION

 A GRAND NEW HOME TO DISPLAY RACING'S HERITAGE

BROUGH SCOTT

Brough takes a tour of Palace House stables "Here we can engage people and put racing into context."


" SOMETIME in 2014, British racing will have its own Olympic moment. After years of disbelief, what looks to the outsider's eye to be a run-down site at the back of Newmarket High Street will be relaunched  into one of the finest heritage centres ever opened in Britain.

"Suddenly we will realise how lucky we are and how right believers were to persevere. Welcome to the Palace House Project in the racing capital of the world.


"At the moment it is a bit of a derelict greeting. At first sight Palace House stables is just a tattered old yard with tall violet weeds growing high and proud in the corner and an ancient dolphin trying to jump out of a one-time fountain, whilst beside it a Dickensian gas lamp looks on, wondering what happened to the glory days. Well at least it had some glory days ......



JMC Turfcall comment

It is hoped that the architects and developers of this project will not allow their enthusiasm to overcome their common sense and get carried away on a bloodhorse illiterate spree.


THIS IS ALL ABOUT BLOODHORSE LITERACY
The cornerstone key ingredient  foundation structure is about  bloodhorse literacy the British horseracing bloodhorse literacy thread  as it weaves its  fragile way throughout history. 

 A fast dying art, an art that the present horseracing government don't even bother to recognize. Do they honestly believe they can continue on ignoring bloodhorse literacy? Believing that it is not needed any more? To chuck the people who have achieved bloodhorse literacy in their own right in the gutter as fools? Because this is what they have been guilty of doing and are still guilty of doing now,  today, every day.  

Bloodhorse literacy an ancient craft that can never be allowed to be chucked in the gutter by the bloodhorse illiterate.The Palace House project needs to be a bloodhorse literate project through and through.

Brough Scott on Location taking a walk through the derelict and long since boarded up Palace House Stables. I wonder how Brough felt as he walked through the shell of this once famous buzzing Newmarket training establishment. Haunted maybe by the ghosts of famous horses, famous trainers, highly skilled bloodhorse literate handler riders  who went out together from here to challenge and win on racecourses around the world, horses long since gone, big winners, brave loosers never to be forgotten.


Yes, yes, yes we need to leave the true bloodhorse literate light on for future generations to follow and improve on. 
This is the theme that needs to light up this Palace House project
and bring it to true life. There are some truly wonderful bloodhorse literate
people who live and work in and around Newmarket so there can be no excuses if this all goes pear shaped.


Belinda Carlisle Leave A Light On For Me 1989


There is always a certain sadness attached to rambling around such properties as this, especially when remembered in days long since gone when in full working order, up and running at the heart of all the action.

REVIEW THE DUBAI DUTY FREE SHERGAR CUP
A massive achievement for all those involved at Ascot racecourse, the Racing Post,  Racing Plus and CH4 Broadcasting Team and all the Riders who came from around the world to compete, to ride here throughout yesterday's Shergar Cup. To get and to keep this Team Event running so smoothly throughout the racecard with such a totally different perspective on the usual theme from the Individual  Horseracing Event  we are used to, making  every ones task more difficult C4 Simon Holt's job  'Calling the Horses' tricky indeed. Journalist of the Year RP Lee Mottershead met up with C4 Tanya Stevenson on the Morning Line yesterday from the Betting Ring at Ascot racecourse  at work to help bring 
 Shergar Cup Day to life.

Olympic Games
Equine events in London over the last two weeks have a Team Event, and an Individual Event. On the worlds horseracing stage all races are Individual, with only one Team Event in Britain at present The SHERGAR Cup

UNIQUE  EXCITING

 

Bloodhorse literacy by its very own nature is sacred
