Ryan Moore picks up Theysken’s Theory ride
Sep 21st
Ryan Moore’s slim chances of retaining his jockeys’ title slipped from his grasp when he slipped from his horse at Windsor in August. The jockey, who missed more than three weeks with a wrist injury, has done his best to make up for lost time and now picks up a plum spare ride at the [...]
No Arc decision about Workforce
Sep 21st
Sir Michael Stoute is one of racing’s great planners. He proved that when he managed to emerge from the wreckage of Workforce’s run in the Dante Stakes to win the Derby just three weeks later. He is also one of the game’s great poker faces, at times almost revelling in his ability to keep the [...]

Rebel Soldier wins Gordon Stakes
Jul 27th
Rebel Soldier may have won the trial but whether he will be allowed to press his claim for the main event is open to doubt. The Group Three Betfair Gordon Stakes at Goodwood has proven to be a useful guide to the St Leger, with nine horses completing the double; the first horse to win [...]
Soraaya wins Princess Margaret Stakes
Jul 24th
Winners often provoke memories and Soraaya certainly did. Mick Channon’s filly came from last to first for Ryan Moore to win the Group Three Princess Margaret Abu Dhabi Stakes at Ascot.
