Happy New Year - Update

Thanks everyone for your patience as we plan and execute the big move . By the end of next week, the stable will be located at our new property which is 97 Lupton Rd, Beaudesert (right next door to the Beaudesert racecourse). The new property covers 36 acres and features an 8 horse walker, 19 stables, 14 day yards, a 25 metre circumference sand roller and a 650 metre training track. Regardless of whether the horses are spelling, pre-training, in training or racing, they will all benefit from coming under a single consistent management regime. These are exciting times indeed for the stable.

In other news, stable newcomer Bellantina recently arrived from Melbourne when she was towards the end of her preparation. Regardless she went very well in her only start for the stable so far, finishing a close second, before then heading to the paddock for a well-earned rest.

There have been quite a few newcomers of late, including Emjay Hussey who made a solid stable debut when first up for over a year at Eagle Farm last week. He finished within a few lengths of the winner over 1000 and will next go to a 1200 metre race in the coming fortnight. Another newcomer, Twoeezy also ran a great race first up for the stable when fourth of 13 starters over an unsuitable 1300 metre journey at the Sunshine Coast. His next assignment will be 1666 metre race this coming Saturday at Ipswich, but barriers etc. had not been finalised at the time of writing (so watch the Facebook page for more details).

Another newcomer is Terms, who is racing either tomorrow at Murwillumbah (most likely) or failing that, on Friday night at the Sunshine Coast. Terms is Race 3, Number 3 in a 1200 metre maiden at Murwillumbah where he will be ridden by Tegan Harrison from gate 5.

Also racing at Murwillumbah tomorrow is Platinum Touch who will go around in a 2000 metre BM55 (details are race 7, number 4, Tegan Harrison, probably barrier 10). His form has been a bit up and down but the stable is hopeful of a good showing tomorrow.

Dana Prince is back in work and trialled recently. That trial uncovered some issues which will means he will trial next with a tongue tie before heading to the races within a fortnight.

In more general news, newcomer La Comtesse joined training recently and is up to trot and canter at this stage, whilst a new Freeze 2yo filly is currently being broken in. And finally, Koitaki is also back in work now and should trial within the next few weeks.

As its fully up to date now, you can check the website for details of whether your horse is in work or in the paddock and as always, if you have any questions, call Tony on 0405 058499.
