  • Cheltenham SUPPLEMENT
    Cheltenham SUPPLEMENT Day One Tuesday 15 March Going: The ground for the first day is expected to ride generally good to soft, with good patches. The forecast for the next few days is for dry conditions, with cloud cover, and temperatures of around 10 degrees, so there is the prospect of watering towards the end of the week. 1.30: Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ Hurdle (Grade 1) Min has been weak in the market over the last 36 hours or so, with 9/4 readily available and bookmakers expected to offer a variety of price boosts or concessions on this and later races. One of the better offers is from Paddy Power who, I believe, are offering to refund the stake on any race at Cheltenham if the favourite wins. My advice is to shop around for the best offer before placing your bet assuming, of course, that the various options are available to you. I am encouraged to see that Buveur D’Air, my ** bet from the Bulletin Book, has proved fairly solid in the market in the last couple of days. The five-year-old had been weak last week and over the weekend, but he is now 7.8 on Betfair and a top price of 13/2 with the bookmakers. Nicky Henderson will be hoping that the ground retains some moisture for him as he prefers cut underfoot. I loved the way he travelled and quickened to win at Newbury in November and he finished almost three lengths ahead of Altior when they ran behind Barters Hill in a Listed bumper at Newbury last season.

  • Sizing John a Golden First for Harrington Cont
    SATURDAY, 18 MARCH, 2017 SIZING JOHN A GOLDEN RECORD EIGHT-FIGURE HORSE TOPS HK INTERNATIONAL SALE by Alan Carasso FIRST FOR HARRINGTON The annual Hong Kong International Sale is truly one of a kind, as it brings together 3-year-olds bred and sold in both hemispheres to be offered exclusively to members of the Hong Kong Jockey Club. On paper, the 2017 renewal of the auction, held under the lights in the parade ring at Sha Tin Racecourse Friday evening, would have plenty to do to compare with the previous get-together, which produced an HK$8.5-million topper and a true contender for this Sunday=s Hong Kong Derby in the form of Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal). Only time will tell if the racetrack results match the sales sheets, but records tumbled Friday evening when a striking son of the late Hussonet eclipsed the eight-figure barrier when selling for HK$10.5 million (,1,095,462/US$1,352,222). The average of HK$4.51 million was 7.8% ahead of last year=s figure, while the median price jumped by 20%. Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Sizing John gets a congratulatory kiss AWe are very pleased with tonight=s results which clearly from jockey Robbie Power | Racing Post photo exhibited the enthusiasm of our owners and their recognition of the quality bloodstock sourced by the Club from the world=s top By Emma Berry sales,@ commented Anthony Kelly, Executive Director of Racing There was much pre-race publicity about Lizzie Kelly becoming Business and Operations for the HKJC.

  • February 2020 Update from U.S. Eventing Performance Director Erik Duvander
    February 2020 Update from U.S. Eventing Performance Director Erik Duvander The Olympic year of 2020 has now arrived and our team is firstly working towards our remaining selection trials – Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L, Badminton Horse Trials CCI5*-L and Jersey Fresh International Three-Day Event CCI4*-L – and our preparation is well on its way. I arrived in the U.S. in the first week of January to travel around to our athletes to work with them and go through their submitted Individual Performance Plan (IPP). I am very pleased to see how well all the horses have come out of the previous season, and after a break they are all looking stronger and more mature. The athletes are very focused and working on the areas of improvement as outlined in their IPP. We have 13 athletes and 15 horses on our Elite and Pre-Elite training list, but I have also worked with a few athletes outside this list who are also Olympic possibilities. It is a very open book as to who will go to Tokyo, so it is up to the athletes to make sure they use every available day to make their improvements and put on the best performance at the selection trials. In mid-January, Tamie Smith, Frankie Thieriot Stutes and I went to Coachella Valley, California to put on an exhibition for our team sponsor, Land Rover, at their 4xFAR Festival. Land Rover turned the launch of their new vehicles into a two-day experiential event with live music and 35 daily hosted events and workshops.

    Keeping In Touch No. 9 14 May 2020 Welcome to “Keeping in Touch No. 9! The sun is still mostly shining on us when we go for our walks or into our gardens but it is a bit chillier – brrrr! But life goes on and we have people you know Shouting Out to you this week. One of the many things we have missed this year is Badminton Horse Trials but we have lovely photos to remind you of the thrills of the competition. Did you know that Eventing as a sport was started in Gloucestershire? That was at Badminton in 1949. Pete suggested we look at yoga as a way of keeping us supple for when we get to ride again, and there is training for those Proficiency Tests which you can do online. That will help you pass them when it’s your turn! So with a Word Search and a Quiz on Badminton, and an appeal for you to nominate CRDA for a charity grant there are things you can do to pass the time, all in this newsletter. And for those who are thinking of entering the Regional Art and Writing Competition now is the time to get those entries sent off. The entry form is at the bottom of this newsletter. Would be great if there was a CRDA member among the prizewinners, how we’d cheer! s (Fergus appears by kind permission of Jean Abernethy – you can follow him here www.FergusTheHorse.com) v2 14 May 2020 Did you know… Badminton Horse Trials The first week in May means just one thing to so many horsey people – Badminton Horse Trials.

  • Literature Review
    An Analysis of Conformation and Performance Variables in Potential Three Day Event Horses in Ireland Name Soraya Morscher Supervisor Professor Sean Arkins Submitted in part fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the Masters of Science (Equine Science) at the University of Limerick, October 2010 Abstract Eventing is the ultimate test of speed, endurance, obedience and athleticism and the importance of such qualities in horses date back to cavalry times where such attributes were deciding factors in wars. The Irish Sport Horse is the leading studbook for eventing for the last 15 years (WBFSH, 2009). In order to keep the Irish Sport Horse at the top of this sport, talented animals have to be identified early. To identify elite horses early, studbooks all over the world employ conformation assessment as an indicator for pre-selection and suitability. Since the new format of eventing was introduced, opinions on what type of horse is suitable for the sport are divided. Currently in Ireland, selection of young event horses is not carried out by any of the studbooks. The Future Event Horse League (FEHL) offers owners of potential event horses a competition to test their abilities. The league is run in a different format to eventing, and as part of the competitions, judges score the potential of the horse for this particular sport. One objective of this study was to analyse selection methods for young event horses in Ireland. Data from competitions of FEHL were analysed in order to evaluate conformation and suitability of the horses that took part and the consistency of the judges scoring.
