In around half a century of following racing, I had very successfully dodged owning so much as a whisker of a racehorse - until I met Henry Kimbell. After early resistance I succumbed to become, at first an apprehensive but now a proud member of the Old Stoic Racing Club. It has been a joy, especially experiencing the fabulour exploits of Jonny Portman's filly Mild Illusion whose performances on the racecourse exceeded our wildest dreams. 

I encourage you to take the plunge, it is enormous fun and I hope to meet some of my fellow Old Stoics on the racecourse soon.

'We have been working with Henry for a few years before he established Galloping To Give. He helped us set up and establish a successful racing syndicate to raise funds and awareness for Maggie’s Cancer Centre in Cheltenham. Despite living in Cheltenham, we are novices in the racing world and Henry made everything very simple including explaining some of the basics. The syndicate was a roaring success raising over £25,000 for our Centre as well as important awareness of our cause within the racing world and attracting new donors.

Thank you Henry and best of luck with Galloping To Give - the perfect way to introduce charities to racing.'

Anna Mason, Fundraising Manager for the Maggie’s Centre in Cheltenham

Everything was superb and I have recommended the day to a few friends. As a someone who isn't a regular to horse racing, I loved the days I have attended and look forward to joining at future events. Ecomotive Logistics

Henry did a super job looking after us all.  It was a 10/10 day out in terms of hospitality for us!
