Barking Up The Wrong Tree

The stable was doubly represented in the Bark De Triomphe at Beverley racecourse today, with mixed results.

Nancy ran very green, took ages for the penny to drop as she ran from one side of course to the other, but finished well to show some promise.

Belle broke well and cruised along in the first half of the race, before losing the plot, misbehaving badly, and starting a fight after crossing the finishing line. The stewards will no doubt be having a closer look.

Triple Double

Always nice to have a winner at York, and Triple Distilled made it 2 in 2 weeks for owner John Saville.

Rowan Scott rode again, and in the testing conditions, timed his run perfectly to get up on the line in the final race of the day. That was winner number 30 for the stable this year.

The horse’s half brother Abstemious won an earlier race on the card so the signs were good.

Nice to finish a very busy weekend for the team on a winner. A special mention must go to Kaeso who finished a very close up second in the Moet & Chandon International Stakes at Ascot.

Kaeso Again

Hollie Doyle travelled from riding at Newmarket this afternoon to ride at Doncaster this evening.

The journey was worthwhile as she rode Kaeso to a convincing victory, the second time they have teamed up together to win.

Kaeso was winning the 8th race of his career from only 24 starts, a very impressive one in three strike rate.

Super Saturday!

Three winners in the space of 3 hours for the stable on Saturday.

Athollblair Boy kicked off the treble at Doncaster with his 6th career win, Izzy Clifton quickly adding to last weeks debut win.

Princess Power followed up with her 5th Career win under Tom Eaves later on the same card, before Oisin Murphy completed the treble aboard Hello Girl at Lingfield.
