It=s all about having the right horses and making sure the trip is worthwhile.@ It isn=t just on his travels that Appleby has enjoyed a fruitful year. He has been successful on the home front as well, his 70 winners of 94 races in Britain in 2017--many of which were exciting 2-year-olds--contributing handsomely to Godolphin taking out the leading owner title. Appleby pointed to the 2- year-old colt Sound and Silence (GB) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) as an example of how the stable has stayed strong through the year. Sound and Silence has won or placed in six of eight runs including a win in Royal Ascot=s Listed Windsor Castle S.
