Innisfree Lad is a half-brother to our own Cyclop. He was purchased privately by David in Scotland in February 2017 after running promisingly in a bumper at Ayr. Innisfree Lad has won 3 times over hurdles and 6 times over fences earning over £107,000 in win and place prize money. His win in the Betway Challenger Staying Series Final Handicap at Haydock in April 2021 was a career highlight considering he was giving 19lbs to the runner up, Defuture Is Bright along with an excellent 3rd in the 2022 Eider Chase at Newcastle. He again had a productive season routing his opposition at Doncaster in December in a Conditional Jockeys Veterans Chase making all and winning by 2 and half lengths under Fergus Gillard. This nine time winner He will to be aimed at Veteran and long distance chases again this season.
JUST FOUR FAME
2018
SEX:
GeldingBreeding: Fame And Glory x Justfour
Owner: Mr A Killoran
Just Four Fame is the son of the late Fame And Glory and was purchased at the Goffs UK Spring Sale 2020. He made his debut in a Maiden Point to Point at Maisemore as a 5yo, in March 2022, finishing second where he travelled and jumped well. He also ran again at Chaddesley Corbett where, again, he finished second. This was then followed by a running on 3rd in the Goffs UK Point to Point Bumper at Aintree, in May 2022, where he ran on strongly from a long way back in the field proving he has plenty of stamina. He has been a challenge to train having only had one run in two season, however he is now back in full training and we look forward to getting him back on the racecourse.
LIBOR LAD
2018
SEX: Gelding
Breeding: Passing Glance x Sonic Weld
Owner: Wingates Associates Limited
Libor Lad was purchased at the Goffs UK Spring Sale at Doncaster in May 2021 as a store. After some promising runs in bumpers and novice hurdles he fulfilled his promise having a great 2023/24 season over hurdles winning twice and filling the runner up spot three times. His first win at Uttoxeter in November under Theo Gillard was a great day for his owner Gary Hartland who was present with his daughters. He followed up at Doncaster in February under Brian Hughes by a comfortable 10 lengths travelling and jumping well throughout. He has the size and scope to develop into a chaser in the long term and will hopefully give his owner Wingate Associates continued fun on the racecourse.
