We celebrated a double today at Salisbury winning both divisions of the 2yo Novice Median Auction stakes in the process bringing in our 30th winner of the season so far. The first leg of the double went to Mrs Jeanette McCreery's homebred TORNADIC who despite carrying a 7lb penalty put up a game performance to win in a photo finish under a great ride from Charlie Bishop. Half an hour later PERCY'S LAD made an impressive winning debut to score going away by 3 1/4 lengths for his owners the JD Partnership. Percy is the first horse for the partnership so we are thrilled to give them their first winner in the yellow silks. He was a shrewd purchase by Eve as Yearling last year from Tattersalls Book 2 and he has rewarded his owners patience nicely. It has been a great season for our 2yos as we have celebrated 12 successes to date with the most expensive of those winners costing £47,000 - which isn't too bad at all considering the powerhouses of our industry will shell out a few million for some horses!
If you would like to join the successful team here at Woodway and become an owner for next season - Eve has already been on the lookout for next year's recruits, purchasing 3 cracking colts by GUTAIFAN, HELMET and HAVANA GOLD. We cater for all types of ownership and these colts are for sale as a whole or can be sold in shares. If you would like more info on any of the colts below please see our horses for sale page or email liam@johnsonhoughton.com and we would be delighted to discuss your requirements.
