Our maiden Furlong Factor gave birth to our first foal of the season on the 20th January 2021.

Furlong factor won 1 race at 2 years, 2020 and £10,264 and placed 3 times including second in Marygate Stakes, York,

She was covered by Ribchester the two time European Champion Miler and still holder of the Ascot straight mile record!

We cant wait to see what awaits for this gorgeous filly and the other 37 foals we have left to foal!

True Jem gets off the mark on her 5th start at Southwell tonight(18th Jan). She hasn't had the best of luck in her previous starts but today she was finally fit enough to do herself justice. A brilliant ride as always from Clifford Lee and expertly prepared by Karl Burke!

Nick purchased her at the Arqana Select Sale in September 2020. She was outstanding physically and in Nick's opinion this filly was the best daughter of Dabirsim he had seen since Different League. 

We can't wait to see what holds for True Jem over the season and what lies in store for our other Dabirsim filly who will be making her debut later in the year.

The first of many for 2022!

The competition this year was incredibly competitive with 42  of you getting involved.

There has been a lot of moving in the top positions, but in the end Tom Haigh stayed strong and has continued to lead since our last update in September.

We can't wait to see all of you get involved next year and who you will all pick from our new recruits!

AL QAREEM got his first career win on Tuesday afternoon at Newcastle, where he stayed on impressively to win over 7f. 

In his three starts so far he has showed some impressive form with a 2nd to Sound Angela in his first start who went on to win again at Lingfield on 15/12/21. 

Sam James has been booked to ride on all three starts and we look forward to what holds for them in the future!

This year we have had had some incredibly talented 2yo's at our disposal. With 25 winners so far this year we have shown that it is very possible to make a return on your investment in racehorse ownership in the UK. 

Notable performances include:

OSCULA winning the Prix Six Perfections (Group 3) in Deauville

ELDRICKJONES coming 2nd in the (Group 2) Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot

HONEY SWEET winning the Prix Zeddaan with our  HELLOMYDARLIN coming 2nd in Deauville.

CORAZON winning the (Group 3) Prix d'Arenberg at Longchamp

Its been great to share the successes with our very loyal owners and also with our newer members who are experiencing racehorse ownership for the 1st time!

They have been competing at the very top level throughout the year! 

Notable performances include:

MYSTERY ANGEL winning the Listed Pretty Polly Stakes in Newmarket and also coming 2nd to SNOWFALL in the (Group 1) Oaks

DANDALLA winning the Arran Scottish Sprint EBF Fillies' Stakes in Ayr

FEV ROVER coming 3rd in the 1,000 Guineas and 2nd in the (Group 2) Boomerang Mile at Leopardstown.

KABOO was incredibly impressive last night at Newcastle Racecourse. He ran prominently throughout by Clifford Lee and when asked 2 furlongs out, he comfortably went on from Olivia’s Choice.  

Last night’s win makes it consecutive wins on the all-weather from this promising youngster, trained by Karl Burke. What made it even more memorable is that Kaboo makes up our 24th winner for our 2-year olds and our 30th overall winner for 2021…bringing us over the £900,000 mark in prize money for the year! 

With more entries next week, we are far from closing the curtain on what has been a momentous year!

We recently saw some great results at the December Mares sale at Newmarket. Three fillies that have brought us great fun over the last few years went on to bring in nearly 2,000,000gns between them. With an average costing of £20,000 each, its been great to see some brilliant returns for our members. DANDALLA (pictured above) who won the Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot in 2020 was sold to Japanese interests for 750,000gns, she will go travel to Katsumi Yoshida’s Northern Farm. FEV ROVER was sold for 695,000gns scoring in the Group 2 Prix du Calvados and 3rd in the 1,000 Guineas, her career is far from over and will remain in training in the US. MYSTERY ANGEL who won the Listed Pretty Polly Stakes and runner-up to Snowfall in the Oaks was sold for 500,000gns. 

Nick has been busy trying to again find great value from the yearling sales throughout this year and has bought some really exciting prospects. Please go to our available shares to get involved!

Nick continues as always to scour the sales to find value and the recent Horses In Training sale in Newmarket has been no different. Three new exciting prospects have joined the Nick Bradley Racing team; AL QAREEM, SHURUT and UNIQUE CUT. All three of these purchases have finished 2nd on their sole run since the sales back in October. All three have entries in the following week, with 6 figure offers already in discussion… 

Don’t miss another opportunity, go to our available shares to get involved before it’s too late! 

SHOULDAVBEENMORE was running in Black Type company in the height of the Summer and she returned to winning ways at Chelmsford on Monday night. We found a suitable opportunity to gain her first win. Returning from a break at this time of year suggests she could be one for Meydan, where they have enhanced the 3yo programme for the 2022 carnival. 

She will head to the sales next week in Newmarket. 

HONEY SWEET got her head in front for the first time since May at Nottingham when she made all to win the Prix Zeddaan from fellow NBR rival HELLOMYDARLIN. 

It was a brilliant day for Nick Bradley Racing owners securing a 1-2 in another stakes race. The 1-2 today we have gone past £500,000 in prize money for our 2yo's in 2021. 36 2yo's have run in our colours this year, 15 have won at 42% wins/runners. 13 of our 2yo's have run in Black Type races with 7 of the 2yo's earning Black Type meaning 20% of our 2yo's have earned Black Type. 

Both our horses went to the front on the rain softened ground at Deauville on Tuesday afternoon and perhaps the stand side rail aided Honey Sweet a touch more than Hellomydarlin which meant that Honey Sweet was able to repel the challenge in the dying stages to pull away by a length. 

OSCULA’s incredible run in the Marcel-Boussac meant that the journey for our 20 owners to Paris was very worth it. Oscula swerved the Jean-Luc Lugadere for an equally competitive affair in the Boussac. Oscula travelled very well under Ryan Moore on the rail in midfield and stayed on  to come 3rd! 

Another huge weekend for Nick Bradley Racing owners when Mystery Angel, Oscula, Guilded and Corazon all took centre stage at Newmarket on the Rowley Mile. Mystery Angel ran in the Group 3 Princess Royal and under Ben Curtis attempted to make all. Ben led the whole way and kicked at the 3f pole. As the pace lifted, Forebearance and Sea la Rossa from off the pace took over the running and came past. Despite, Mystery Angel’s extensive campaign she stayed on towards the line to be beaten into 4th by 6 lengths. 

Oscula followed 35 minutes later and ran an even more impressive race in ground conditions which were probably faster than ideal. Exercising similar tactics to Mystery Angel, Oscula attempted to make all and seemed to be travelling incredibly well into the dip and as she came back up the hill Hello You swung past. She stayed onto the line to just be headed into 3rd and the Marcel-Boussac is still a strong possibility with hopefully softer ground conditions to suit. 

Saturday meant the Cheveley Park Stakes and what a cracker it was for Guilded who ran an incredible race, up the stand side rail to totally out run her 80/1 SP odds. Beaten just 4 lengths Guilded is another filly which has paid her way this year in her total prize money and should give her owners a huge thrill in 2022. 

Eldrickjones dropped back to novice company on Thursday afternoon and he got the job done at odds of 2/13.

Mark Crehan kept his cool on Eldrick despite the large bump he recieved from one of the Kevin Ryan horses. Nick was delighted to see him go past the horse who bumped him in the run-in to level the score and win by 2 lengths.

Roger is adamant that the victory will do alot for Eldrick's confidence. We will now aim to win again with him in a Novice over 6 furlongs again at either Nottingham 6th October or Ayr on October 7th.

Guilded finally got off the mark at odds of 1/4 dropping back to Novice company on Tuesday. Both Nick and Karl were confident that had she not got caught behind a wall of horses in the Prix D’Arenberg she would of finished very close to Corazon so it wasn’t surprising to see her win very easily. Clifford was able to get a lead from ….. and when he hit the 2f pole he eased out Guilded who did everything very smartly to win by 6 lengths. 

She has been left in the Cheveley Park and should she come out of her race well she will be declared on Thursday. 

 Dandalla lit up Ayr Racecourse on Friday Afternoon when she bolted up in the Listed 5f Sprint Stakes and returned to her high level of form as a 2yo. 

Nick and Karl never lost the faith and it was great to see her bolt up on Friday. Ben gave her a cool ride and did everything right to score with ease.

We will now head to the Group 1 Prix L’Abbaye in Longchamp on Arc day. 

Nick was busy at the Osarus Sale this week adding four new Yearlings for the 2022 roster. Fillies’ by Kheleyf, Born To Sea and Pedro The Great. Shares are available in all four yearlings which can be found under our Available Shares p

Lady Raeburn got her first Career win on Wednesday afternoon at Beverley where she stayed on stoutly to win over 5 furlongs. 

Lady Raeburn had smart pieces of form throughout her starts including a second on debut behind Group horse Mister Ayr. 

Kevin Stott was able to hold her up during the race before asking her to pick up as they turned in. When the field began to come back to her she was able to power clear in the final 100 yards. Kevin felt after the race that she wants 6 furlongs next time and may be a 7 furlong filly which bodes well for the future.

 A small 4 runner affair at Musselburgh on Sunday was Nick Bradley Racing's sole representation on the day with both Fast Response and Sophie’s Star lining up. 

Sophie’s star took them along for the first 300 yards before getting tired after 8 weeks off having placed in the Marwell stakes at Naas. Fast Response took the race up full of running and pulled away to win very nicely. 

That is Fast Response 3rd win of the year and she has now more than doubled her price tag in Prize Money! 

Corazon and Fev Rover made the St Ledger weekend memorable for their owners. Corazon was reappearing after just 9 days from her success in the Prix D’Arenberg. 

She ran a huge race from a low draw at Doncaster to only be pegged back in the final 50 yards by Cattura and Armor. Corazon came 3rd in the Group 2 Flying Childers which leaves races like the Cheveley Park, L’Abbaye and Breeders Cup Sprint all under consideration. 

Meanwhile, Fev Rover ran a massive race in the Group 2 Boomerang Stakes at the Curragh to come 2nd and prove again that she has stepped forward since her 3rd in the 1000 Guineas. The Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket and the Prix L’Opera are all under consideration. 

 Everything went according to plan for Kaboo on Thursdy at Wolverhampton. It probably helped him learn plenty by having to go through horses to put the race to bed. He also will have learned plenty from having to run around a bend for what is probably the first time in his career. The Listed Rockingham Stakes at York on October 9th over 6 furlongs but in all likelihood he will go to Kempton for a 6 furlong Novice on October 13th next.

Rhinoplasty got off the mark on Wednesday night. A very cheap purchase by Nick for just £9,000. She looked much the best horse throughout and won comfortably giving her owners a great thrill repaying their patience with her. 

We expect to see her out next at Leicester on September 20th over 6 furlongs in a 0-75 nursery.

We bought three Yearlings on Tuesday at the Somerville Sale. This is a sale that is renowned for finding value as Group 3 winner Eve Lodge and Chipotle, winner of the Windsor Castle Stakes  at Royal Ascot, were both sourced here in 2020. We bought fillies' by Territories, Showcasing (pictured above) and Gregorian. They were all sold out within 24 hours.We wish all their owners the very best and thank them for their continues support, 

We will be buying plenty of Yearlings on Tuesday 7th September to go into training with Georg Boughey. 

Corazon brought huge smiles to her owners faces yesterday when she won the Group 3 Prix D'Arenberg at Paris Longchamp. 

Both Corazon and Guilded were drawn in the plumb Stalls of 2 and 3. Longchamp's unique 5f course which takes place on the far side of the racecourse anti-clockwise from the usual round course starting points favours horses drawn in the low stalls.



Corazon broke smartly from the stalls and travelled on the front end throughout, one position off the rail from the joint favourite Dizzy Bizzu. From 2 furlongs out it looked as though Corazon could fade back through the field after she came under pressure however, she picked up and battled gamely seeing off any challengers.

Corazon won snuggly by 1/2 Length, she was purchased for just £11,000 from Tattersalls Ireland September Sale which means that she will have a fantastic return on investment for her owners

Corazon ran a cracking race on Tuesday evening to land the spoils at Lingfield. It was a great effort and a big step up on her debut run when she was too green to show her level of ability.

Corazon was able to break from the stalls and track the early pace, she got slightly outpaced due to experience round the bend. Gift Horse was able to get first kick in the straight but it wasn't enough as Corazon put the race to bed quickly to win well. 

Fast Response ran an outstanding race on Friday afternoon dropping back to 6 furlongs. Fast Company progeny do well running with cut in the ground and it was very clear that Fast Response relished the rain softened ground at Musselburgh. 

She travelled very well throughout the race and put the race to bed at the furlong pole. She won snugly at the line from the Dagleish trained filly by 3/4 of a length to secure another big win for NBR. 

Hopefully, Fast Response will have greater honours in the not too distance future.

Tuesday was a fantastic day for Nick Bradley Racing as Oscula made all to win her first Group race. The ground conditions were perfect for Oscula and Ryan Moore reported that the ground was riding Soft before the race.  

We were drawn well in stall 2 so it was a relatively easy job to get to the front. Oscula jumped very well from the stalls and Ryan got across the horse in stall 1 who was the only potential competition for the lead.

Hellomydarlin was a help for Oscula today as she got across Zellie and relegated her to further back in the field than her rider was probably hoping to be. Ryan kicked from the front and put distance between himself and the main market protagonists. 

Oscula tried her heart out all the way to the line and hit the line hard to score by a length. We are going to aim her towards the Group 2 Calvados Stakes now on August 21st but she could head to Ireland for the Debutante Group 2 Stakes on the same day again over 7 furlongs.

Clodovea found herself in the worst part of the track on Wednesday at Beverley. David Allan did an excellent job to switch her off and allow her to travel comfortably unlike the rest of the field who raced keenly. From where she was on the track David gave her a great ride to put her head infront in the final 50 yards.

Visually it looked as though she will be suited by a better gallop and she should only get put up a couple of pounds for that performance. We should therefore be able to keep her in a 0-60 grade for her next start.

Nurseclaire was very keen in the early stages of the race and early on it looked as though that she had done too much and wouldn't finish off her race.

Billy Garrity had to switch her to the outside and she stayed on nicely to go away and win with plenty of improvement to come.

We will see how she comes out of the race but she could be a candidate for the STAR Stakes at Sandown on 24th July over 7 furlongs.

A fantastic ride from Clifford Lee meant that Fast Response broke his maiden tag at the second time of asking on Monday night.

Fast Response broke smartly from the unfavourable draw in 2 and raced separately away from her 7 rivals. The decision of Clifford to run his race on the stand side rail allowed him to race in a straight line when tacking across to the far side rail whereas his rivals plotted a longer, more indirect route. Clifford was able to get her to the front and when he asked her to go and win the race she put it to bed before being eased down towards the line. There are a couple of listed races coming up which could be options for her at Newbury and Ascot. 

Sophie's Star landed her second career win on Friday night in emphatic style landing another £10,000 GBB Bonus for her owners. She showed plenty of speed and hit the line hard. We look forward to seeing her running in black type races moving forwards. 

Hellomydarlin ran a fantastic race on Friday night to win on debut at Goodwood. 

Mark Crehan got our filly out well enough and we had the experienced market leaders behind us on the middle of the track in the early stages of the race.

Nick is of the opinion  that we did most of our racing on the worst of the track and that is why the three horses I was concerned with all fell out of the back of the telly at the 2 furlong post. This massively upgrades the performance of Hellomydarlin. 

Mark said our filly has such a great attitude and she dug in to get her head in front.

I think we will go straight for the Listed, Empress Stakes next at Newmarket but we may be tempted to give her an entry in the Albany in the morning if she is sound and the race lacks depth.

Mystery Angel ran a brilliant race at Epsom on Friday to finish 2nd.  

Ben Curtis got our filly out well and she had the perfect early position, things couldn't have gone better for our filly in the early stages and Ben got Mystery Angel into a lovely rhythm and was able to give her a breather as they went down Tattenham corner which was always his plan. Ben got our filly over to the stands rail in front of the field which was the plan and he executed it perfectly.

We had the field off the bridle before us bar the winner and our tactics allowed us to keep the field at bay who on the whole had to come up the middle of the track which wasn't as good ground as what we had on the rail. Snowfall pulled away to record the biggest ever winning distance in the Oaks however, Mystery Angel received a huge welcome back to the enclosure!

OSCULA, who showed herself to be a handy type at Brighton, was well drawn, fast away and, having taken over in front in the straight, kept finding and saw it out well. Everything went according to plan as we wanted to grab the rail. Nick had this to say about Oscula after the race “OSCULA is a good filly and I'm delighted for the owners. I don't know whether Ascot would suit her as much as here, so whether we'd go there I don't know. I wouldn't worry about how quickly the races have come as she's as tough as nails and talented.”

Oscula continued a fantastic May for Nick Bradley Racing. We were hopeful of a big run from Oscula on Monday afternoon at Brighton having debuted very well at Kempton five days before. She took the preliminaries very well and went down to post under Mark Crehan nicely. She broke alertly from the stalls and took an uncontested lead as she free-wheeled down the Brighton hill. She travelled down the hill smoothly giving the impression she really handled the track. Once she met the rising ground Mark kept her up to her work and she hit the line to win comfortably by 3 lengths. Mark was delighted with the performance and we are hopeful of seeing her in 10 days time in the Woodcote at Epsom on Derby weekend. This continues the excellent form of George and we are excited to see what the future holds for our filly.

Mystery Angel spent her Monday morning having a spin around Tattenham Corner to see whether or not she enjoyed Epsom Downs undulations. 

"She worked very well under Ben Curtis. George was delighted with her and we will be monitoring the race in the next seven days or so with the potential view to supplementing her for the Cazoo Oaks. At the moment all options are open." NIck Bradley

Honey Sweet pulled away in great style on Sunday afternoon at Nottingham. The reports from Karl have been positive over the past few weeks but we were fully expecting our filly to come on for her debut. Breaking from stall 1 on the outside the original plan was to get cover however, when the field tacked over to the rail Clifford had to scupper our original plan of getting some cover and as a result we were green as we were racing on our own. Honey Sweet learned as the race went on and when Clifford gave her a slap inside the final two furlongs she put her head down to some degree and moved clear of the field. She will be targeted at Royal Ascot. 

We had plenty of confidence in our filly ahead of her debut run and whilst that was a bit disappointing, there were excuses and today's run has confirmed those excuses to be exactly that. Our filly broke well but ran green in the early stages of the race by ducking to her right. She showed plenty of early speed and took them along in the early stages of the race. She got a bit lonely in the closing stages of the race and Harrison said she was idling infront but we were fortunate to have our nose down on the line where it counted.

Brand new private purchase has been announced this evening. By Galileo Gold out of the mare Speed Freak. 

The gelded home bred son of Wooton Basset got off the mark on Saturday afternoon under Paul Hanagan. Bred by Nick at Glebe Farm Seasett has always been held in high regard and he has now been given a new mark of 81. He has always showed talent and on Saturday the further they went the more accomplished he looked. He will now be aimed at Haydock in a handicap over 10f and hopefully we can continue to see him progress. 

An amazing day topped off by Fev Rover coming third in the Group 1 1000 Guineas. A truly brilliant performance from Fev Rover who attempted to make all under Paul Hanagan in first time cheekpieces.  She very nearly duplicated the performance of Mystery Angel earlier on in the card. She came incredibly close to glory and plenty of Group 1 targets await her this Summer. 

Mystery Angel landed the Pretty Polly Stakes on 1000 Guineas day in spectacular fashion. She has run well without winning a pattern race on several occasions in the past, but she got into a nice rhythm up front on this quicker ground and just kept rolling. She's only had two runs on ground good or faster, winning both, and Nick and connections are talking about the Saint-Alary and Musidora next. 

We got our first 2yo winner on the board on Friday evening at Doncaster with a very good performance from Lucy Lulu under a confident ride by Mark Crehan. Our filly took the preliminaries very well and went down to the start without a problem whilst one or two of the colts played up a little. Our filly broke smartly and travelled within herself for the first half of the race. She showed enough speed to put away many of her rivals and then when Tyson came to her inside the final two furlongs she picked up again to win with plenty in hand.

Mark said after the race that our filly was idling at the 2 pole and he kidded her along to keep her up to her work. He said after the race that we could step her up in trip if we wanted and that he could have pulled well clear of his rivals had he asked her to.

Zihaam rounded off the weekend to secure a Nick Bradley Racing Guineas weekend 1350/1 treble. He was hugely outpaced in the early stages due to the two front runners taking each other on. This was perfect for Zihaam as the strong pace made it a stamina test rather than a speed test over the 8.5 furlongs.

Danny rode Zihaam well and kept him on the outside so he didn't get intimidated by the other horses. The rain that has fallen this week has made the track perfect for Zihaam as he was able to travel up the outside and rocket up the hill to score with ease. ZIhaam will go back to Beverley next week on 11th May where we expect him to win again. 

Mystery Angel ran a very good race at Saint Cloud on Thursday. 

Christophe got our filly out well but there was early competition for the lead and she sat 3rd in the early stages.  There was a lack of pace down the farside which did not  suit our filly and as a result it turned into a sprint up the home straight.  Christophe brought our filly to the outside and started to nudge her forward when he should have been getting after her and waking her up to get to the front. 

Christophe eventually got after her with 150metres to go and like at Wolverhampton she quickened to go down by half a length.

Silent Queen burst through the field on Saturday night to win her second race of 2021. Silent Queen behaved in the stalls on Saturday night unlike some points this season. She missed the break and Kevin very quickly dropped employed Plan B and dropped her in at the rail.

We discussed beforehand that a lot of the winners had come up the middle recently as pointed out to me by Hugh Taylor and Kevin switched her to the outside going around the bend. Silent Queen took off in the straight and won the race very easily.

Like Dramatista, last week Lion's Vigil got off the mark on Tuesday afternoon. Under a great ride from Ben Curtis Lion's Vigil ground it out down the home straight to propel the challenge from Straight Ash. 

He ended up winning snuggly by 3/4 of a length. It looks as though there is plenty more to come from Lion's Vigil up in trip as the season progresses. 

 Silent Queen blazed a trail on New Years Day when she made all to win under Ben Curtis at Southwell. It was a smart bit of placing by George to select the race, but everything went according to plan in the race and our filly showed that she was a class apart to score by such a margin. George said that her work at home had been very good so we were confident that the surface wasn't going to be an issue for her. She broke well from the stalls and Ben made all to win very comfortably from her rivals. It was a very good performance and earned a Timeform rating of 86. She will now be targeted at Newcastle on the 21st January.

The Roger Fell trained POCKLEY won his second race from three starts at Newcastle last night, having been beaten just a head on his other run. Under a fine ride from Ben Curtis, the son of SHALAA hit the front 2 furlongs out and stayed on too strongly for the well backed William Haggas trained favourite in second place.

POCKLEY, who cost £35,000 at the Goffs Breeze-UP sale in July, is our third Roger Fell trained 2yo winner of 2020 from just 2 horses to run. With MAX OCLOCK scoring at Ayr at 10/1 in August.

MYSTERY ANGEL became Nick Bradley Racing’s fifth 2yo filly to earn valuable black type this season with her third place in Saturday’s Group 3 Zetland Stakes at Newmarket.

The George Boughey trained daughter of Kodi Bear, who cost just 22,000 Guineas at the Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up sale, followed up her win a fortnight earlier on the Rowley Mile with a battling performance to take her season’s earnings to £34,163.

She joins our distinguished list of other 2yo fillies to earn black type this year:

FEV ROVER

DANDALLA

FURLONG FACTOR

TERRICHANG

Collectively the 5 fillies cost just over £100,000!!

2020 has been a great year for our 2yos with a total of 13 victories and 18 places to date. Indeed, 8 of our 16 horses to run have won at least 1 race.

We have shares available in yearlings recently purchased by Nick Bradley at the sales. Click below to join team NBR for the 2021 season.

POCKLEY broke his maiden last night for Roger Fell under a fine ride by Jason Hart at Newcastle.

Travelling strongly at the front of the field having broken well, POCKLEY led 2 furlongs out and looked like he was going to be headed inside the final furlong, before rallying late on to win gamely by a short-head at the line.

The son of Shalaa, who cost £35,000 at the Goffs UK Breeze-Up sale, was Nick Bradley Racing’s 13th 2YO winner this season and 22nd in total. He is also our 8th 2YO to win a race this season out of a total of 16 runners to date.

MYSTERY ANGEL made it 2 wins from just 3 starts in the valuable ‘Jersey Lily’ Fillies’ Nursery Handicap at Newmarket on Saturday. 

The daughter of Kodi Bear, who cost 22,000 GNS at the Tattersalls Breeze Up Sale, gave her trainer George Boughey his first success at his local course. Jockey David Probert managed to bag the favourable stand-side rail and never saw another rival to win by a comfortable one a half-lengths to secure the first prize of £24,900 for connections.

 MYSTERY ANGEL has improved with every run this season and looks set for a step up to Listed class before the end of the season. 

The BHA’s official handicapper announced on Tuesday that FEV ROVER is now the joint top rated 2yo filly in the country with a rating of 108. 

Nick Bradley Racing’s winning team of 2yo fillies are also top of the class this season when compared with their year group (colts and filles) and relatives:

• FEV ROVER (108) is the top rated 2YO (colt or filly) by her sire GUTAIFAN

• DANDALLA (106) is the top rated 2YO (colt or filly) by her sire DANDY MAN

• FURLONG FACTOR is the 2nd top rated 2YO filly by ADAAY

• FEV ROVER is also the top rated 2YO filly at Richard Fahey’s yard. She is also the second rated 2YO overall, with only the 110 rated colt Rhythm Master ahead of her.

• DANDALLA – is the top rated 2YO (filly or colt) at Karl Burke’s yard.

• FURLONG FACTOR (82) – is the top rated 2YO (filly or colt) at Rod Millman’s yard.

Further evidence that when it comes to identifying the absolute best value bloodstock available, there is nobody better than Nick Bradley.

ZIHAAM recorded his third win of the season at Beverley on Wednesday, his fifth in total.

Ridden to perfection by Ben Curtis, who was tasting victory for the first time since returning from his Covid ban, the Roger Fell trained 6yo hit the front 1 furlong out and held on determinedly.

This was probably a career best performance from Zihaam off a BHA mark of 73. Timeform gave him a figure of 84 and reported that he is "better than ever at the age of 6".

There are no more suitable races for him at Beverley this season and so it's probably Pontefract next for team ZIHAAM.

We have 1.25% shares available in Zihaam for just £369. This one-off cost includes all training fees for the 2021 season.

CLAREYBLUE recorded his second career victory in effortless fashion at Lingfield on Monday. The Martyn Meade trained three year old was always travelling like the winner under Rob Hornby and only needed to be pushed out to win by a comfortable 2 lengths.

The well backed 6/5 fav has now finished in the prize-money in 6 of his 7 races this season.

MYSTERY ANGEL broke her maiden in fine style at Wolverhampton on Wednesday with an easy win under David Probert. The daughter of Kodi Bear, who cost 22,000 Guineas at the Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale, was Nick Bradley Racing’s 10th 2YO filly winner of 2020.

Mystery Angel was smartly away and raced prominently before powering away from her rivals off the bend to win by a comfortable 3 lengths. She gave trainer George Boughey his 4th winner from 9 runs at a strike rate of 44%

FEV ROVER secured her second black type win of the season with a battling victory at Deauville under a strong Christophe Soumillon drive. 

The Richard Fahey trained daughter of Gutaifan, who cost just £20,000 at the Goffs Premier Yearling sale, has now won over £65,000 in prize-money for her owners.

Multiple French champion jockey Soumillon had FEV ROVER placed in behind the pace-setting Plainchant, who had won a Listed race at Bordeaux comfortably on her last run, and delivered his challenge perfectly to win by a neck on  the line.

FEV ROVER has only been beaten by 2 horses in her career to date, Martyn Meade's recent impressive Listed winner METHOD and our very own Royal Ascot winner DANDALLA.

It will be Group 1 races from now onward for FEV ROVER, with either the Prix Marcel Bousac at Longchamp on the 4th of October (the same day as the Arc), or the Fillies Mile at Newmarket on Friday the 9th of October.

Fev Rover's victory in France was Nick Bradley Racing's sixth 2YO black type performance this season, all of them from fillies.
