The Keagan Kirkby Stable Staff Charity Race
On Sunday 25 October at our Racing for Children Charity Raceday, we will reintroduce the Keagan Kirkby Perpetual Trophy in memory of Keagan Kirkby, who tragically lost his life in a fall at the Charing point-to-point in February. Keagan, a much-loved and respected member of Paul Nicholls’ team, made a lasting impact on those around him. His loss was deeply felt across the racing community, both locally and beyond.
The trophy will be awarded annually as part of a stable staff charity race, created to celebrate Keagan’s life and passion for racing. This year’s race will be run in support of Wincanton’s Season Opner Charity Partners, The Eloise and Katie Memorial Trust and The High Sheriff of Somerset Charitable Trust.
