Overview

Since getting a license to train racehorses at Higher Whiddon Farm near Ashburton in October 2020, former professional jump jockey Chris has together with his wife Becky,  assembled a small but mighty string of horses, who are more than capable of holding their own on the national stage.There’s a real family feel to Higher Whiddon Farm, with many of the heads peering out over the stable doors being those of homebred horses such as Tile Tapper and Mayhem Mya. This family feel resonates throughout of the yard which strives to provide the best environment for its horses, staff and owners.

What to expect

Chris, Becky and the team are looking forward to welcoming you to Higher Whiddon Farm. Here you'll be able to see first-hand, the love, care and attention their horses receive 365 days of the year. We will be offering live demo's with our yard physio, a display of our horses and plenty more. Children are welcome and Buttons the pony will be available. We had a great day last year and this year we will be aiming to make our open day even better.
