On 24/10/09 Police from Hampshire and Thames Valley attended an address in Three Mile Cross and recovered a large quantity of tack which is suspected to be stolen. Thousands of pounds worth of suspected stolen horse tack has now been seized (saddles / bridles / rugs etc etc). A previous press release was issued on 22/10 however a further seizure has now been made.
If you have recently had tack stolen, which is outstanding and identifiable please contact PC Stacy BEALE on 0845 045 45 45, quoting operation 'Jockey'. Please ensure that you have your crime reference number (if out of force please provide Police Force name also), full descriptions of your missing property and a photograph if possible.
We are very keen to reunite property with its rightful owners and also assist with marking any new / replacement property that may have been obtained.
3 people have been arrested in connection with the thefts and are currently on Police Bail.
PC Stacy BEALE

Thanks for that, I am not too far from there so have copied your post and shall mail it to my RC secretary to see if any RC members have lost tack.

I have recently attended the British Racing Colledge, and undertaken a microchipping course for saddles, this will make sure saddles stolen can be scaned and returned to its rightful owner. All the police forces in the UK can identifie the engraved stirrup bar, then scan for the chip, which means your saddle will be returned if you are unfortunate enough to be targeted.
