🏆 Winner Spotlight

 

Havachoc provided our first winner of the year, scoring in decisive fashion at Wolverhampton Racecourse under Paddy Bradley.

 

It was great to see him get his head in front and break his maiden in such good style, and we were especially delighted for owner Ambrose Turnbull, who has been a fantastic supporter of the yard over the past 12 months.

 

We’re hopeful the win will boost Havachoc’s confidence and serve as a springboard for further progress in the months ahead.





We didn’t have to wait long for winner number two, with yard legend Street Life landing the 14th win of his career at Southwell Racecourse.

 

He’s built a lovely partnership with Ethan Tindall and has since added a second and third this month — a perfect example of his toughness and consistency.

 

It was made even more special as it became the first ever winner for the Pat Morris Racing Club, a fantastic moment for all of our members.






🏅 ARC AW Bonus Update

 

We’re very proud to once again have several horses featuring prominently in the ARC All-Weather Championships Horse of the Year standings.

 

Street Life sits 6th, Wyvern 15th, reigning champion Tasever 23rd, with Bajan Bandit and Golspie both inside the top 50. With prize money paid down to 30th place, we’re hopeful the boys can keep up the momentum.




🏇 Racing Club Update

 

It’s been a great first month for the Pat Morris Racing Club, with 10 runners producing 1 winner, 3 seconds, 2 thirds and a fourth — a fantastic level of consistency and plenty of competitive performances for our members to enjoy.

 

All four club horses were in action during January and, as mentioned, Street Life opened the Club’s account with our first winner.

 

It was great to see so many members at the races too, and every member who requested to attend received a full Owners & Trainers badge along with hospitality on the day, ensuring everyone enjoyed the full ownership experience.

  

📅 Looking Ahead

 

Plenty of entries are planned through February and, with the horses in such good form, we’re hopeful there are more winners just around the corner.

A big thank you to all our owners, Racing Club members and staff for their continued support.
