The 2013 Charles Owen Pony Racing Series gets under way at Exeter
Racecourse on Tuesday, April 2. This year there are 25 Racecourse Fixtures -
staging 50 pony races - with the Finals to be held at York Racecourse on
Sunday, September 8.
Charles Owen are once again sponsoring this fantastic
series and the Pony Racing Authority is extremely grateful for their continued
support. Charles Owen have been sponsoring Pony Racing since 2005 and
their commitment and investment in the sport has provided so many opportunities
for young jockeys. The Charles Owen series is the crème de la crème of pony
racing and has been the spring board for many of our young and talented jockeys
including recent Cheltenham Festival winning jockeys Sam Twiston-Davies,
Brendan Powell and Harry Derham.
RaceTech will again be sponsoring the best turned
out awards and new for this year will be providing a prize for the Best Novice
Rider of the month.
The Prince family has also kindly agreed to once again sponsor the Rose
Bengal Scholarship and Leading Rider Awards. This provides opportunities for
both the best and those that have tried the hardest to improve their skills and
be rewarded for their efforts.
Over 30 pony races have already taken place in 2013 at various
Point-to-Points around the country, with over 100 more Point-to-Point Pony
Races scheduled to take place before June.
