It’s all systems go here in the yard and for Newmarket as a whole, as the final weekend of March marked the start of the turf season, and now it’s time to really get going and see what the year will bring. We are going into the new season in good form, with the horses
With the grass gallops being opened in Newmarket, and occasionally some weather that doesn’t feel like the depths of winter, we are starting to dream of spring and the start of the turf season.

Ziggy was winning in April of her two-year-old season yet this was the best performance of her career so far,

We were delighted with the performance of the No Nay Never colt Big Cyril in the Listed Rose Bowl at Newbury last week and he looks a lovely, progressive type at this stage of his career. He’s always gone with a considerable amount of class at home and we’ve been pleased with how he’s transferred that
