Andrew Balding Racing adds new Martin Collins Polytrack™ gallop to Park House Stables facilities
Leading British equestrian surface manufacturer Martin Collins Enterprises have just completed a full gallop refurbishment on the renowned Lochsong training gallop at Park House Stables, Kingsclere.
The Balding family are the current custodians of the famous Park House training establishment. Andrew Balding is the third generation of his family to train at Park House.
The five and a half furlong gallop has been completely refurbished. Works included installing new drainage with a special porous tarmacadam base, prior to laying a new Polytrack synthetic surface. The gallops are used on a daily basis by over a hundred fifty horses.
Andrew Balding wanted to ensure that the quality, safety and durability of the surface was a top priority, hence making the decision to use BHA approved Martin Collins Polytrack™.
