Jess Burley is First Winner of Racing Welfare’s Best Turned Out

Jess Burley today (6th June) won the  first weekend of Racing Welfare’s Best Turned Out series with her charge Judicial, who is trained Julie Camacho and owned by the Elite Racing Club.  Sponsored by Betfair, the initiative saw the charity award the BTO prize in the Group 3 Palace House Stakes at Newmarket this afternoon following a public vote via Racing Welfare’s website to decide the winner.  A graduate of the National Horseracing College, Jess has been travelling to the races with Judicial for the last five years. 

Racing Welfare’s Best Turned Out aims to champion the skill of racing staff in readying their horses to run by offering each yard the opportunity share a video clip of their horse’s regime ahead of the race.  A fabulous selection of videos were received, providing some great behind the scenes accounts of each horse’s preparation and character.
