JIMMY JAZZ
The first batch of horses came in from the fields last week and were started back off riding yesterday.
Here is JIMMY JAZZ, a 3yo gelding by JACK HOBBS ex STORM PATROL who is owned by JAMES RIMMER.
He is a big chasing type, with a fantastic temperament, looking forward to seeing how he progresses. 🏇🤩
AIMIGAYLE and Passing Glance colt
We collected AIMIGAYLE and her colt foal by PASSING GLANCE back from The National Stud yesterday morning. 🥰
Aimigayle is in foal to TIME TEST, they are both looking fantastic, the foal is super friendly and an athletic looking foal. 🏇❤️

SAUCY MINX and colt foal 💕
We brought SAUCY MINX and her powerful looking colt foal by TIME TEST back today from the National Stud. He is an absolute beauty! 🤩
Saucy unfortunately didn’t show a pregnancy on her 30day scan sadly but will be covered again early next year. Both are looking really well. 🏇⭐️💕
STORM PATROL & PASSING GLANCE FILLY
We brought STORM PATROL and her super sweet filly foal by PASSING GLANCE back from The National Stud today, both looking really well. They really all have such beautiful temperaments.🤩
STORM PATROL is another in foal to TIME TEST this year and had her 28 day heartbeat scan a couple of days ago. 🏇🏇
Lovely to have them home. 💕
⭐️SOLD⭐️SOLD⭐️SOLD⭐️
SILVER HILL FLYER, is an attractive, 5yo mare around 15.3hh/16hh. Unfortunately, she has no interest in being a racehorse so is looking for an alternative career. We feel she would make an excellent happy hacker or riding club horse. She has a super temperament, is very kind in the stable, doesn’t bite or kick. She is an easy ride at home, you can get on her from the ground, does all the gates, doesn’t pull, has jumped poles in the school. Good to load/travel/shoe/lead etc. Clean limbed, open to vet, no vices.
£2500 plus vat
Can be seen/tried at Angmering Park, West Sussex
Please message us for further details or email [email protected]
Straight out of training, so no reschooling done, she only ran last night. Good home only, no dealers please.
Saucy Minx and colt foal
SAUCY MINX’S owner, Sacha went up to The National Stud to visit her last Sunday and take a look at her colt foal by TIME TEST. She sent this clip of him through!
They both look really well, he looks an absolute cracker and clearly very happy with life! 🥰🏇
Record High
Record High ran a lovely race under CIARAN GETHINGS to finish 5th today at Bangor in a competitive novice hurdle.
Record High was having his second run back after a long break and settled nicely today, staying on well at the end.
He will now get a handicap mark and will likely switch to chasing in the autumn.
He may run once more in a handicap hurdle next month if we can find some more soft ground.
Here he is in the paddock, looking a picture, turned out by DAVID BOXALL.🏇🥰
Precious Jean
Very pleased with PRECIOUS JEAN’S first run today. She was making her debut in a competitive 18 runner field at Cheltenham and just lost her position a bit coming down the hill, where the ground had just started to dry out a bit too much for her. She then stayed on very nicely up the home straight. 😊
She will have learnt an awful lot from today, she’s only a 4yo and hopefully we may get another run into her in May, providing the ground doesn’t go quick.
Thank you very much to MICHEAL NOLAN for giving her such a nice introduction.
Here she is with AMY KIRCHEL in the stable yard before the race, who had her looking fantastic! 🏇🥰
Record High at Plumpton
Pleased to report Record High seems all ok after his return to action after almost 500days off the track. He unfortunately got struck into by another horse on his first start over hurdles and has been off since. He was rather too exuberant early on today at Plumpton, taking a fierce hold and Sean did a good job of getting him to settle! Hopefully that will have blown the cobwebs away for next time. 🏇🥰
Sergio and Record High having a quiet pop over the hurdles ahead of Plumpton tomorrow.
❤️🏇The new girl purchased from Cheltenham Sales today, making herself at home! She has been bought to sell in the yard and won an Irish point last weekend, very importantly on soft/heavy ground!!! More on her to follow….🏇🏇🏇
🏇Ex Racehorse Update🏇
🥰Here is little ELLIS riding his close pal, 16yo INVICTA LAKE, who was retired from racing a couple of years ago. He won 5 races for us in total, including a Grade 3 at Sandown.
Thank you to his Mum, FAYE, for sending this in, who says he is very much loved and super with the children. Proving yet again how quickly our horses settle into the right homes. ❤️🏇x x
🎉🥂🏇HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Wishing you all a healthy and prosperous 2024 and a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all the horses, who are officially another year older today! 🏇🏇
Below are two JACK HOBBS geldings who are now two year olds as of today! On the left is ‘BEEFY’ out of STORM PATROL (Shirocco)and on the right, ‘BEAU’ out of BELLE O’THE DALES (Blue Bresil). Two strong sorts. 💪❤️🏇
🎉👏Congratulations to ALICIA NEWELL on graduating today from The BRITISH RACING SCHOOL.🏇🏇🏇
Alicia has been on a twelve week residential course up in Newmarket, where she has gained her Level 1 qualification in Racehorse Care and will now be working towards her Level 2 in the workplace.
Here she is this morning having her graduation ride!
Well done Alicia - great job! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
