Racehorses in the Park
For many years racehorses in Arundel Park early every morning were a spectacular sight.
John Dunlop OBE the well known horse trainer was a familiar figure in the park, keeping a close eye on things....from the late 60's until 2012.
He sadly died in 2018 and in the Guardian obituary they wrote.....
"To spend a morning with him on his gallops beside the splendid old oak trees in Arundel Park was to see a master quietly going about his work in idyllic surroundings. Continuity was the enduring theme of his reign there, with the same staff and same owners part of a time-honoured routine in which the man in charge never seemed in a rush to run his horses."
I was lucky enough be in the right place at the right time to take a few snaps....
