Popular chaser Cue Card and Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Coneygree are to star in the Retraining of Racehorses (RoR) Showcase in Gloucester on November 23.

The event takes place at Hartpury University and College and is designed to highlight the transition of racehorses to second careers.

After retiring from racing in 2018, Cue Card made his showing debut with top rider Katie Jerram-Hunnable last August and will showcase his progress, while Coneygree will also take part in a live demonstration.

Visitors to the event will be able to attend live clinics with experts and watch a number of demonstrations, with the day building to a grand finale featuring a display by the RoR Musical Ride team.

Advance tickets can be bought online for £15 here until noon on November 23 and are available on the day for £18.
