Michael Owen Signs Exclusive Deal With Bolesworth Estate
Michael Owen has signed an exclusive deal with Cheshire’s Bolesworth Estate. The partnership will see Michael attending a host of events on the Bolesworth calendar in Tattenhall throughout the forthcoming season.
Michael’s daughter Gemma Owen, a dressage rider and social media influencer, was also in the news this week after she was confirmed to be taking part in Love Island 2022. Alongside his daughter, the ex-Liverpool striker has a keen eye for horses, having already established himself as an owner of many top racehorses in the racing industry.
Michael, owner of Manor House Stables, which is situated just a short distance away from Bolesworth in the village of Malpas, will be the headline name at Bolesworth’s famous International Horse Show which opens on June 29th.
He will even be taking part himself during Speed and Style Day on June 30th. The key event on this day will see well-known names and celebrities from the world of sport, horse racing and equestrian teaming up for a competitive race which will involve team tagging from the equestrian arena on horse-back to a 4-wheeled racecourse that winds between the show jumps – with the fastest combined time winning the class.
Nina Barbour, Managing Director of the Bolesworth Estate will be competing with Michael on the day.
Other confirmed names include jockey AP McCoy and an ever-expanding line-up of sports and entertainment celebrities.
Nina said: “We are delighted to be launching this new partnership with Michael.
“Michael’s daughter has previously taken part in our dressage events at Bolesworth and Michael is a familiar face here. It is wonderful that we have now taken this a step further and I am really looking forward to welcoming Michael to a host of events throughout the year ahead – and to be competing with him too in our big season launch event.”
Michael added: “Bolesworth is a fabulous location with a superb event calendar running across the year – where there really is something for everyone to enjoy.
“I am looking forward to the partnership and to be taking part in the first big event at Bolesworth this summer.
“There is real synergy between both Bolesworth and Manor House Stables and I hope through this partnership there will be the opportunity to showcase horse racing and racehorse ownership to a new and interested audience.”
