Supreme Rioja Wins A3 Owners Bonus Series Final

Thursday night saw Supreme Rioja take the A3 final worth £500. Rioja, one of the pups from the progressive Take the Crown x Ballymac Mighty litter, used the wide draw to his advantage to overcome crowding at the first bend and went on to win by six lengths in a calculated 28.60. In winning the final, he also completed a hat-trick and will be looking to match the record of littermate Supreme Shiraz who completed a four timer with her win on 6th February.

Pups progressing well

The Take The Crown x Ballymac Mighty litter ,have really hit the ground running , I couldn't be more pleased with them . Supreme Rioja and Shiraz have both now won 4 races and progressed to A2, best of luck to "Pongo" in the owners bonus series final on Thursday . Artic Lightning has won 2 and risen to A3, Supreme Merlot and even little Claret have won a race each . Come On Rodney is now returning from a small injury , while Feel The Power,Im Noodle and Inky Binky all had their first trials last week and were well inside grading . Mother is currently in pup to Paradise Silva ,due in March , fingers crossed all goes well.
Having seen a few trial stakes , the Puppy Derby looks to have some tremendous quality again this year , no doubt the racing office will have a major headache deciding on the final 36.
Ballydoyle Time had her first spin out of season today ,recording a respectable sprint time . Its great to have her back as shes a real kennel favourite, and a great character . Hopefully she can remain injury free this time and give her owners some fun on the open race scene

Three in a row

Two dogs completed a hat-trick in January.

Supreme Oslo began his impressive run with a win in A7 on 18th January. Just five days later he was upgraded to A6 and duly won again. He then had a further outing four days later and defied odds of 8/1 to once again win in A6 company.

Supreme Shiraz, an August '15 homebred, showed the rest of the litter just how it is done. After taking a couple of races to find her feet, she won in A6 grade in just her third race. She then won again in her next race in A5 company and overcame another upgrade to win her third in a row, taking an A4 race in 28.94 to see the month out in style!

Well done to all involved!

Leons Buck wins on Sky 25.1.17

With a good record in the Prestige at Hall Green in previous years, it was disappointing to not have an entry this year. However, on final night, Stuart returned to his old stomping ground with Leon's Buck for a 480m Standard race. He overcame a tricky trap 5 draw as a result of the race comprising of 6 railers, tucking inside the leaders at the first bend and tracking round behind them. On the run in he ran on strongly and went on to take the race by three quarters of a length.
