All six lots at Doncaster are sold

Doncaster sale last week provided a successful outcome with all six lots offered being sold. We felt they were a very nice bunch of horses who slightly under sold in our expectations but we are delighted with the new purchasers and wish them all the very best of luck. All results can be found on the past sales page.

We are particularly delightly that Harry Dunlop of Windsor House Stables in Lambourn bought lot 326 a daughter of Spunger who Harry trained successfully for Barry and Janet before retiring to Hillwood for stud duties.We love this filly and think she has been very well bought by Harry. We wish him all the very best and we will be following with great interset her racing career.

All the sales yearlings are coming on well. Our next sale will be Book 1 at Tattersalls at the beginning of October.

Our yearling drafts are now all live on our sales page. Pictures will appear two weeks out from sales. This time in two weeks our Doncaster yearlings will be strutting their stuff at the sales.

Its a big week for all our older foals as they will be weaned from their mummies. There is normally a few hours of shouting sounding a little like a group of toddlers at a party!! They soon settle down with their mates to enjoy the next stage of their lives.

Our six Doncaster Yearlings are two weeks into their yearling preparation. They have started some light lungeing and are all doing well. It has been miserable wet weather but all the hosres have done very well during this period. All our Tattersalls yearlings are coming in the first week of August so fingers crossed they get some sunshine on their backs before then.

Never A Doubt has been scanned in foal to Royal Applause. This is our last cover of the year. The late foaling Makara and Charlecote will be rested this year. Most of the mares and foals have been turned out day and night but sadly the weather hasn't been too kind recently.

We are busy steam cleaning and painting boxes ready for the yearling prep season which will soon be upon us.
