Field and heath · The High South
The Long Gallop
The Long Gallop is a stretch of turf at Heathmere, a mile and a half long, climbing to a clump of beeches. The racing strings of the great Houses go out before dawn in single file, twelve horses to a yard, and come back steaming before the first bell of the town. Trainer Nathaniel Felstead has overseen the first lot there each morning for three decades.
