The following are just a selection of the comments that we have received in writing from people who have become owners with High Moor Racing.
19 October 2007:
"As always it was a most enjoyable morning and the hospitality tremendous - nowhere like it, John and Kirsty are so welcoming .............."
13 October 2007:
"I am involved with two other syndicates which I picked based on the horse's pedigree...............However I am not as impressed with the way the syndicates are run compared with HIGH MOOR RACING. Information is sketchy at best,non existent at worst. As such I hope to continue my support for some time to come."
4 October 2007:
"Yes we are definitely interested in continuing with a new yearling."
3 October 2007:
"S and I have really enjoyed our time with High Moor and could not have asked for anything more from either of you in terms of welcoming us to the owners group and keeping us up to date with progress. In terms of the future............. as I have said previously, we feel that this is exactly the kind of group that we were looking for when considering getting into ownership and all things being equal we would certainly hope to remain in the group."
5 August 2007:
"It's a pleasure to be involved in High Moor Racing and with the Ashgill team."
6 July 2007:
" Just to say "thank you" to you both for keeping us all upto date with the changing news"

"It goes without saying a good day for us all, and one very much to look forward with too........................ Its testament to your patience and knowledge she has progressed sufficiently to win today"

" Well done with Miss Havisham today , Great Expectations fulfilled !!!"
28 June 2007:
"My heart is going fifty to the dozen, you would think we'd won the lottery, she did us proud today. "
22 April 2007:
" Just to say "thank you" for yet another great photo gallery of the Middleham Open Day........................ the photos and commentary do give a good feel of how the day went. I'm sure all owners appreciate the significant amount of time and effort which is put in to keep everbody uptodate , and informed."
4 March 2007:
" My wife was heard commenting to our friends that this was yet another one of my "purchases" that she has had misgivings over beforehand but once made she is really glad I did. ................... It was great to meet the other High Moor owners, lovely people and all really enthusiastic."
28 January 2007:
"
I think it's worth repeating that previous, and current ,syndicates I have been/ are involved with, do not compare favourably with the regular updates etc that HMR gives on its horses. So thanks again for this! Pleased to see, from your e-mail distribution, that the number of partnership owners you have, seems to be regularly increasing. Congratulations on this."
4 January 2007:
"You always answer all my questions and then I think of others to ask!! ................I am almost certain I am going to go ahead and take shares in Maid of Lamancha, but the answers to the above might influence whether I take a 5 or 10% share! I look forward to joining you and thanks again for all the information and guidance you have provided."
24 November 2006:
"Both been out of the office this week, but just wanted to say thanks very much for last Sunday. Organisation as always was excellent and it was good to see Miss Havisham, and as perky as ever, but really interesting to hear John's run down on the other horses. Lunch was very good and it was lovely to be able to chat to everyone, and those sausages at John's - scrummy!!! Once again, many thanks for a lovely day, and please extend our thanks to John, Kirsty and the team."
22 November 2006:
"Again , a very well documented photo gallery of the day. Thank you for all the work you both must have put in to produce it. I certainly feel al this effort is very worthwhile, as it certainly helps create a distinct sense of involvement.(missing in many other partnerships we know of! (no names))."

"Thanks very much for arranging yesterday we all enjoyed ourselves. Please pass on thanks to John and team for their work which made the visit to the stables so interesting it looks like he has some promising youngsters. If I don't speak to you before have a great christmas and new year."
20 November 2006:
"Just a quick word to thank you for organising yesterday's event. I thought it went very well, and was well supported. My wife, daughter and myself enjoyed the day, and it was good to meet other partnership members, as well as some "old" faces."

6 June 2006:
"Had a great day, weather was fantastic. Miss Haversham looks well, very laid back in the stable. She did a nice piece of work on the top moor, stretched out very well. She covered the ground quite easily and looked like she had a bit more to give. We should have some fun with her. Made very welcome by John, Kirsty cooked enough bacon and eggs to feed Middleham."
