February
Despite being the shortest month of the year, February was jam-packed for the Baillie Haylage team. Orders continued to come in and kept our lorries very busy.
We were delighted to continue supporting the Brocklesby Hunt P2P, held on a blustery but dry day early February. Congratulations to all connections of Music Drive who took the win in the feature Baillie Haylage Mixed Open race at Brocklesby Races. The 8-year-old, ridden by Ellie Callwood, saw off their nearest pursuer Jet of Magic by 10 lengths. Leicestershire based trainer Kelly Morgan confirmed Music Drive will now head straight to Cheltenham for the St James Palace Festival Champion Hunters Chase next month.
Elfie had a busy weekend exhibiting at Spoga Horse 2025 in Cologne, Germany. Based on the BETA International stand with other UK companies, we had interested from lots of International visitors. The event saw more than 8500 visitors from 77 countries attend over the weekend.
