Stable Talk

The Stable at the moment is still full of horses, with many horses swapping stable life for a spelling paddock, and others returning to the stables. We have had two recent additions to the stables from the Central Districts, Miss Cool from the Sharrock stable and Mary Pepper from Lisa Latta, both horses will race in the Christmas period.

We have also had Sir Ram (His Royal Highness) join the team, he was an impressive debut winner at Waimate and has settled into the team very nicely Jockey Jamie Bullard rides him work most mornings.

We have also had a lovely Lucky Unicorn filly (Lucy) join the Stable after being pre- trained, she has jumped out of the barriers and is taking everything in her stride.


Crosscannons was gelded this week and has recovered very quickly and we look forward to getting him back to the races in a couple of months.





Trials at Ashbruton on Tuesday .



Soldiers Tale (Stravinsky-Foxy Blonde) really hit his straps and the powerful son of Stravinsky ran second to a very nice horse of Micheal Pitmans, he raced greenly in the straight looking to get off the rail, but all of this will come to him with practice.


Kaapstaad-Flood gelding won his second trial in a row, dominating the field in a very well ridden trial by stable apprentice Wilson Oon, 'Rodney' he has been slow to mature but has come of age.


Miss Tessa (1/2 sister to Bradnor) was very slow to begin missing the start by three lengths, she however flew home along the fence finishing only three lengths from the winner, she has gone to the spelling paddock and we are sure of a nice Autumn with her.



Senor Pete filly, had a very nice hit out over 1200m, she showed good speed to lead but was still a little green on the corner and lost ground, she recovered to run home for 4th. We would hope to find a nice 1600m race for her over the Christmas period.



Darci Brahma -Climb the Vine, had a very nice educational trial before heading to the spelling paddock, she was lost when the other runners crossed her and was reluctant to take a gap on the rail so was angled out and ran home nicely, she is a big beautiful filly who will be a lovely 3 year old filly type....hopefully another Ombre Rose.
