Do you like the look of this site? Well you can download this free wordpress theme for your blog too! We custom designed two horse racing themes because we couldn’t find any good quality themes for horse racing websites like ours. As were feeling generous we decided to make the themes freely available to anyone who wants to use them. The two versions work with the latest updates of the WordPress blogging software (2.8.x). Each theme contains one link to our main sponsor ~ you can remove this link, but if you do a little angel in heaven will die!

The two themes to choose from are listed below, ‘Horse Race’ is the theme you are looking at now on the site and ‘Jockey and Horse’ is an alternative theme using a photo of AP McCoy and Ruby Walsh battling it out at Bangor On Dee race course. To preview the themes click on the links below.

Sad news in racing as the 1992 Grand National winner ‘Party Politics’ is put to sleep due to old age. Party Politics has a great chaser and had an enviable record in the National. Winning in 1992 with Carl Llewellyn on board and going well in the famous void race 12 months later before finishing second to Royal Athlete in 1995. He had 8 career wins and won over £250,000 for his owners.

Carl Llewellyn said of Party Politics: “He was a fantastic jumper of the National fences, and gave me one of the best days of my life.
“It was a real shame that he never got the chance to win back-to-back Grand Nationals, as he was going significantly better at The Chair in the 1993 void National than when he won it in 1992.”
