Coming in soon


KW is doing very well at pre-training at Cobbitty Lodge. Geoff visited recently and says that he seems to have thickened through the chest and hindquarters. His quiet and amenable nature makes him a favourite in the yard but once the saddle is on he definitely becomes a racehorse and when working with another horse wants to get to the front. However, as reported by both Corey Brown and Fiona Mylan, he has a tendency to want to stop for a chat rather than push past the leader so Mary, the new Manager of Racehorses at CL, is working on strategies to encourage him to run on. Gerald says that as soon as a place is available (ie a horse currently racing at Ascot Lodge goes for a spell) he will come in to commence full training for his next preparation.
