Hey's The Grand National Horse Race Fans....

Grand National-winning jockey turned racehorse trainer Richard Guest is kicked out of his rented caravan home in grounds of Yorkshire country manor after judge rules he turned property into 'a mess'

Grand National winner turned racehorse trainer Richard Guest has been turfed out of his home in the former grounds of a country manor after a judge found he had turned the property into 'a mess'.

Mr Guest, who won the 2001 Grand National on Red Marauder, has been locked in a court fight with wealthy Yorkshire landowner Oliver Kent over his home and business, based at Ingmanthorpe Racing Stables, near Wetherby.

It sits on land parcelled off from the grounds of £1.5million country pile, The Manor, Ingmanthorpe Grange Farm. 

When Mr Kent and his wife bought the land in 2015 with plans to build a house on it Mr Guest was already living there in a static caravan.

He had worked as a racehorse trainer for the owners of the manor Eric and Lorraine Lumley.

Mr Kent struck an 'amicable' deal with Mr Guest that he could carry on training racehorses from the stables until his new landlord had finished building a home on the land for the couple to move into.

But Mr Kent, a 'keen equestrian' himself whose wife also trains horses, went on to sue Mr Guest in the Leeds County Court, claiming his tenant breached his lease by failing to properly repair and maintain the property and allowing it to become a 'mess'.

When Mr Guest's lease ended in April 2018 Mr Kent told him to 'vacate the property', but the ex-jockey flatly refused.

He then launched a court bid of his own seeking the right to move into the couple's newly built house.

Last February a county court judge ruled against Mr Guest, who promptly appealed to the High Court.

Now High Court judge Mr Justice Snowden has rejected his appeal ruling that Mr Kent has the right to turf the former National Hunt champ off his land.

Mr Guest, who has himself trained more than 400 race winners, won the Champion Hurdle as well as the infamous 2001 'monsoon' Grand National in which the course was so drenched that only two riders crossed the winning line without mishap.

The 55-year-old, who rode the legendary Shergar as an apprentice teenage jockey, caused a stir earlier this year when he announced his intention to get back in the saddle and apply for his licence to ride races once more.

When Mr Kent and his wife moved in, Mr Guest was granted a one-year lease on the land for an annual rent of £24,000.

This was later renewed until April 2018, when his landlord sent him a letter 'requiring him to vacate the property'.

That letter prompted the court clash between the two men, with the former jockey defending the claim brought against him.

He counter claimed for a declaration that 'if he was entitled to a new business tenancy he was also entitled to occupy the new house that the Kents had built on the property'.
