The 75th birthday (2nd June 2005) of the President of the AJA, Mr Gay Kindersley, was celebrated belatedly at Stratford-upon-Avon on Sunday 17th July when the Fegentri invitation race, hosted by the AJA, was named in his honour.
Twelve runners went to post, half of which were representing the host nation Great Britain, and the closest of these in the finish was Naked Oat ridden by Jamie Snowden, who was only beaten a head by Henrik Engblom on Milton Bradley’s Mr Fernet in a thrilling finish.
