Rock Anthem Winner

Keiran O'Neil rode to instructions and brought Rockie home by 1 1/4
lengths at Wolverhampton tonight. We were so pleased as Rockie has won
every season for us and was unlucky last week at Kempton. The photo
shows Rockie with his owner Milly Bright and his Jockey.

Rock Anthem 2nd Kempton

Rock Anthem was a close 2nd in the Apprentice Handicap on Wednesday evening. Unfortunately Rockie broke too well and was doing all the donkey work upfront and was only overtaken in the last furlong by the winner. He is in good heart and having come out of the race well we will look for another opportunity in the near future.

Sunset Kitty 3rd Kempton

Sunset Kitty ran an outstanding race at Kempton on Wednesday evening to finish 3rd. She was slow out of the stalls as the jockey, Adam Kirby, had trouble getting the hood off her. She lost at least 5 lengths at the start but was able to make it up easily as there was only a moderate pace. She was still in last place at the 2f pole from when she started to mow down the opposition but the post came too soon for her. We were delighted for her and her owners, the Cool Cats, who are a delight to train for. She has come out of the race well and we will look to return to Kempton in January, all being well!

Ducal 4th

Ducal ran a fine race from draw 12 on Saturday night at Wolverhampton.
Unfortunately he was always 3 or 4 wide and had used up all his energy
by the time he put his head in front at the furlong marker. We were
delighted with his first run for us and he got plenty of support from
his owners after the race as shown in the photo with, from left to
right, Kathy, Andrea, James and Sheila.
