It’s World Kindness Day today and what better way to be kind than to congratulate some of our graduates on their successes this week for WellDoneWednesday.

But if you know somebody that’s doing a good job why not tell them, it could make their day!

Well done to 𝗭𝗼𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲 (course 333) who led up her first winner last week when Crossgalesfamegame won at Market Rasen for Fergal O’Brien.

Well done to 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗛𝘂𝗴𝗵𝗲𝘀 (course 329, pictured) who schooled for the first time for boss Dan Skelton. Will only graduated in April and had no experience prior to starting his course with us in January so this is a brilliant achievement.

This week we want to take the opportunity to congratulate two jockeys that have made 2019 ones to remember… Congratulations to 𝗖𝗶𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻 𝗙𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗻 (course 305) on being crowned Champion Apprentice.

Congratulations to 𝗢𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗵𝘆 (course 271a) for wining the title race and being named Champion Flat Jockey 2019.

However, neither of these jockeys would have horses to ride if it wasn’t for the stable staff who care for and ride these horses everyday as well as travel them to the races. A winner for them means as much, if not more, so Congratulations to 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝗺𝗼 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗹 (course 333a) who led up his first winner on Saturday when Chinese Whisperer won for Alan King at Wolverhampton.

Horseracing is all about Team Work

DOUBLE CHAMPIONS!
