    MONDAY, 30 JANUARY, 2017 NO RETIREMENT PLANS FOR STAND GUARD MORE THAN READY, Despite breaking the record for the number of wins achieved on an all-weather surface with Stand Guard (GB) (Danehill) THE FREQUENT FLYER trainer John Butler has no intention of allowing the 13-year-old rest up for too long. In winning a mile and a half handicap at Kempton on Saturday Stand Guard posted his 28th win on the all-weather eclipsing the previous record set by Don Cantillon=s La Estrella (Theatrical {Ire}) in December of 2015. "He got the record and he's good and fine after the race,@ reported Butler. "We'll assess him during the week, give him a few easy days and make a plan from there. There are races for him. The handicapper will have a say on Tuesday, and we'll see which bracket he is in, but if he's OK there is every possibility he might run again,@ Butler added. Bred by Juddmonte Farms, Stand Guard raced only once for Khalid Abdullah and Sir Michael Stoute before being sold at Tattersalls in 2007 for 22,000gns. Since then he has had six different trainers over an 83 race career and his victory on Saturday was his 17th for Butler.
