Our purchase at the October sales in 2009 was Secret Witness, in whom we have been very excited about. Dropping him back to six furlongs and adding blinkers has transformed this horse. He is one to watch on the turf this summer.

Glamorous Spirit ran a super race at Curragh on Sunday 27th June. See the review by the racing post.
Second in a listed race on the 20th March. This was her first listed race where she showed a very good front running performance only to be headed on the line.
She has now gone to stud as a black type filly. This season her sire will be Compton Place which stands at Whitsbury Manor Stud. She will return to run for a short period in foal.
Her main aim is to run in the listed races at Chester. Her times have already been quicker at Chester than Borderless Scott who won last year. | |
