Training Update: A Book 1 purchase for 40,000gns as a yearling, he came very close to winning s Book 1 bonus. We could have run in more nursery handicaps, to make life easier for him, however, we chose to attempt to win the £25,000 bonus. He could easily make onto a Saturday handicapper in 2025 and we’ll see him ply his trade on the All Weather over the Winter too. Remains and unexposed, exciting, young horse.

We learned that lot 175, one of our naps of the sale, was led out unsold at 38,000gns - we’d intended to bid on him with a valuation in the 70ks or even 80ks, but we’d secured our intended sole purchase earlier, ie lot 141. We couldn’t resist at those sorts of numbers so we approached the vendor to check on this colt’s availability and he said they’d just sold him to Charlie Johnston for 40,000gns. On the one hand we’d missed out, on the other hand, we decided, ‘let’s quickly approach Charlie to see if he has an owner for the colt or whether he was bought on spec?’ Fortunately he was purchased on spec, so we very quickly put our name to him. We couldn't possibly leave him behind for those sorts of numbers.
This colt’s pedigree is to die for, as he’s a full brother to two horses rated in excess of 100 and a half brother to a further 100 rated individual.
Buying him was a no brainer for us.
