Women in Racing chair Cheryl Caves said, “I'm delighted that WiR is partnering with Weatherbys for our first in-person event of 2026. The WiR committee has always recognised the value these networking events bring to our members, and we hope it offers a great opportunity for anyone considering a role in racing administration, or for those interested in learning more about the important role Weatherbys plays in the industry.
“We'll be announcing the panel line-up shortly, and we hope the theme, 'Bringing Your A-Game to Work', will be both engaging and insightful.”
