"Downs House is about getting new owners. Going to Newmarket or Lambourne is a long way on a Saturday morning. Here owners can get on a train - watch their horse on the gallops - have a bit of breakfast and then be home before their children are awake!"

“We really enjoy doing something different in racing. Going out to Bahrain with the family brought a different aspect to race horse ownership that you don't normally get. I think what appeals to us is the vision and energy that the Bakers have and the unique experience they create."

"To own horses is a very fortunate thing to do. To have one that's locally connected to Goodwood – it's amazing. You dream that you can get the camaraderie, the people that love racing. George Baker and his team put in lots of hard work that we don't see, so all credit to them."

“Get It” is obviously the stand out horse for our syndicate. He wins in Bahrain, wins in the Racing League and then just to cap it all wins the Stewards' Cup at Glorious Goodwood. That was a joy for me after 30 years of trying to get a Glorious Goodwood winner – and the Baker's delivered it.”

"Downs House is a massive opportunity for owners. On a Saturday morning it's only 20 minutes from London. It's right in the centre of all that the Derby represents. I wanted to make Downs House state-of-the-art and it just snowballed!"

"There's a bit of the gambler in Candida and we thought if we don't take on Downs House then someone else will. What an opportunity."

"As we got closer to Down's House we thought wow this is impressive. The position and stableing are incredible. It's been so exciting to have been with George and Candida for the last 12 years but this is a serious upgrade. There's a great future here in Epsom for GBR. The more people who get involved the better because they're going to have so much fun."
