WEST ACRE
1st March 2025

West Acre cemented himself as a crack young international sprinter with a gritty win in the Nad Al Sheba Turf on Saturday. Ponntos was able to obtain a very good track position, however, West Acre showed a fantastic attitude to get across and mow him down late on. He's now set up for the 1.2 million Al Quoz Sprint on World Cup Night. It's a remarkable rise to fame for West Acre who has had only 6 lifetime starts with three being on the turf. He has an exceptional cruising speed along with a will to win. He'll be campaigned domestically in Group 1's with the King Charles Sprint nominated as a mid season target.

PHANTOM FLIGHT
31st January 2025

Phantom Flight confirmed himself as a Triple Crown contender after winning the Crown Prince's Cup in the style of an improving horse. Confidently ridden by Callum Shepherd, he never looked like getting beat. Old foe Sovereign Spirit set sail for home but Phantom Flight was more than comfortable tracking across, beating him with a bit in hand. Shaikh Nasser and I are keen for him to stay in Bahrain in an attempt to win the Triple Crown. We appreciate how difficult this will be but both the Shaikh Nasser Cup and the King's Cup are two of the most important races in the programme, and they certainly warrant chasing. Many congratulations to owners, Victorious Racing.

WEST ACRE
25th January 2025

West Acre lit up Meydan breaking the track record under an extremely confident Callum Shepherd ride. Having his second start on the turf, he earned an official rating of 114 following his scintillating performance. He’s a horse that we’ve always liked, however it almost looked impossible that he’d end up in this position after an injury around 10 months ago. All credit goes to the team at home to have him back in this brilliant shape. He now has many options in the sprinting division and many congratulations to his owner, Michael Blencowe.

PHANTOM FLIGHT
17th January 2025

Phantom Flight recorded a memorable victory in the Al Adiyat Cup. They went very quick which played into his hands, however, there was a moment where old ally Sovereign Spirit looked as though he had slipped the field. Callum was able to organise Phantom Flight for one last effort which proved to be a winning one. He'll now take his chance in the prestigious Crown Prince Cup in two weeks time. Many congratulations to Victorious Racing, completing a double on the night.

CITY HOUSE
17th January 2025

City House took a big step forward from his debut in Bahrain showing an excellent turn of foot to win from an unfavourable position going away. He's a horse that has grown in confidence following his wind operation and he's certainly now fulfilling his potential. I'm hoping that a return to a straight track will suit him as he seems to find the tight bends in Bahrain a little awkward. He'll now step into the Turf Series races where he has an opportunity to win excellent prize money. Many congratulations to Fox & Badger Racing.

TOUCH THE MOON
17th January 2025

Touch The Moon made it two from two this season in Bahrain under Callum Shepherd who rode us a treble on the night. We rode him with a little more patiently this time, he was able to show a good turn of foot to put the race to bed in a matter of strides. He was a little idle in front but hit the line strong and he'll now have to step up in grade. He's a horse with a lovely pedigree and seems to be thriving under his current conditions. Many congratulations to his owners, Victorious Racing.

BRAGBOR
10th January 2025

The talented Bragbor got off the mark under a sympathetic Darragh Keenan ride on Friday night. He travelled smoothly but for a moment showed his inexperience under pressure before picking up nicely to win on debut. He's a horse who has a huge amount of talent and we've left plenty to work on. Moving forward, he should be able to step up in trip as he gets stronger and certainly has an exciting future ahead of him. Huge thanks go to Sheikh Khalid and his KHK team.
