update from grant open day - 8th june
Grant believes she will be plenty of fun for the summer!
first time working 04/06/24
Our filly worked this morning on the bridle.
Sam James rode her and liked her. He followed Magic Topissima up and said he could have gone past her without too much fuss.
She needs to work again on Saturday and next Tuesday and then we could be ready to run.
I will get her named early next week.
We will be working from the options shown below:
18th June Catterick Novice 5f CD
19th June Hamilton Maiden 5f CD
20th June Ripon Novice 6f CD
27th June Hamilton Maiden Fillies 5f CD

Our only purchase of the Tattersall's Goresbridge Breeze Up sale came in the shape of this Far Above filly, an absolute rocket!
She looks every bit like a sprinter, in physique and on pedigree.
Indeed her sire was a product of the breeze up system before going onto winning the Palace House Stakes in just a five run career.
Interestingly, the best two products of the first season sire are currently out of American dams.
This filly out of a Kitten Joy's mare, Kitten's Joy was responsible for horses such as Kameko, Roaring Lion and Hawksbill. He stood for €50,000 as a stallion in America before his passing.
Purchased for €32,000, she will qualify for band C&D maidens before hopefully stepping into stakes company throughout the summer.
She qualifies for the lucrative IRE bonus which see's owners rewarded with a €10,000 bonus should we win a qualifying maiden.
You can take a look at the filly's breeze to the right.
As you can see, she's very uncomplicated and she picked up nicely when the rider gave her a light shake of the reins. She improved right throughout the breeze, clocking the 22nd fastest time from 281 catalogued lots, this was the 10th fastest time for a filly!
Four products of the first season sire came down the 2.2f speed test with our filly recording a faster time than the rest by at least over 0.5 seconds, which is a fair amount over such a short trip.
Purchased from Mayfield Stables, who have produced Group One winners in their relatively short existence. They sent a similarly priced filly to last years Goresbridge sale, she went onto finish 4th in a listed race and is now rated 90. Ronaldo gave a good report on the filly when we went over to Ireland at the start of April and she was one we were very much interested in before the sale and even more so after seeing her again in the flesh!
Grant Tuer was very keen to train her and we have no issues supporting Grant again as he has an excellent record with our fillies in particularly sprinters.
