Hello everyone! Just a quick update on what's been happening here at GHR. It has been a difficult month with the freezing weather causing so many meetings abandoned, however before the freeze arrived Musaytir broke his maiden tag with a thrilling win at Lingfield under a good ride from Gina Mangan. 'Rufus' as he is known in the stable had been running well and thoroughly deserved his success. I hope those of you who read my blog had a few pennies on him..."we are looking forward to our next winner on the all weather in the near future". You read it here first as Musaytir was our very next runner after I posted the blog, winning at 11/1 after being backed from 22/1.
I had a perfect race lined up for Racing Club horse Karakoram at Market Rasen, but sadly it was frozen off as was Taunton a couple of days later so we ran 'Kenny' in better class race at Exeter, he ran another game race finishing fifth beaten less than 3 lengths. I thought this was a great run from one of the most consistent horses you will ever find. Also running at Exeter that day was lovely, lovely mare My Girl Katie. Katie finished third in a nice race and has now qualified for a handicap mark, she is an excellent jumper so is going to give the owners plenty to look forward to.Speaking of new owners, I am delighted to have two new additions to the team here with Halifax andMoscow Spy joining us. I always get a buzz with new horses in the yard, trying to figure out their personalities and planning their individual care to get the best out of them.
I have to give a big mention to Justshortofabubble who ran a cracking race at Ffos Las to finish second to a very, very well handicapped winner. Always prominent Bubbles ran a super race and was well clear of the rest of the field.
We are in the process of extending our stable block with the addition of seven new boxes which will be finished shortly. You can see from the video and photos on the new website what a special location we have to train horses and along with the dedicated team I am so lucky to work with we can offer a horse, maybe YOUR horse, the change of scenery and care it needs to find the improvement necessary to make a fun day out a really great day out!
Take care everyone!
