Additional Details

The Totnes & Bridgetown Races Company Limited

We are very grateful to our headline sponsor, the Totnes & Bridgetown Races Company Ltd. Dating from 1783, the Company ceased racing when its course at Totnes was requisitioned in 1939, but it continues to exist to the modern day,

primarily sponsoring hunter chases at Newton Abbot and Exeter and point-to-point races throughout Devon and Cornwall, as well as other events that promote equestrian and rural pursuits in South Devon, particularly those that engage young people.

A history of the Company from its early days in the 18th Century to its ongoing activities in the present time was compiled by the late Chairman, Peter Wakeham, in a book which includes over 70 photographs. Copies may be obtained from: Karen Baker, The Flete Estate Office, Haye Farm, Holbeton, Plymouth PL8 1JZ estate@flete.co.uk | 01752 830253. Price: £13.50 (incl. P&P), cheques payable to Totnes & Bridgetown Races Co Ltd
