Back in June, sadly we had to retire one of our horses Choice of Many as he bowed a tendon during a trial at Rosehill. Well, we have just received news from the Syndicators that they have been able to replace this boy with a 2YO filly by Shamardal (USA). Her mother is the Our [...]

I finally received a copy of Choice of Many’s vet’s written report, and he really did hurt himself quite badly. One a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 is slight and 10 is ruptured and non weight bearing, his tendon injury is rated at 8. On a happier note, Choice of Many has found [...]

I have just received news from the Stable about Choice of Many and sadly was we feared, he has indeed suffered tendon damage, the scan showing there to be a “sizeable hole” in it. So his racing career is over before it really began. But it could have been worse for him, as with rest [...]

Choice of Many trialled today, but sadly there is bad news. Rounding the turn, he was bumped by another horse causing him to knuckle over. His rider said he felt Choice of Many falter, and feeling he was not right, pulled him up. Choice of Many pulled up lame and unfortunately, it appears that he may [...]

Due to track conditions, Choice of Many’s trial has been postponed until Friday June 26. Fingers crossed the conditions will be better then.

Choice of Many has been back in work for a little while now, and will trial at Rosehill on Tuesday 23rd June. Fingers crossed that everything goes well at this trial, as if it does he should have his first start shortly afterwards.

As expected, Choice of Many’s trial field today was extremely good, and set the fastest 2YO trial time of the day – by nearly 2 seconds. His trial was won by Manhattan Rain from Real Saga. Choice of Many went better in the run this time and made fewer mistakes. He finished about 8 lengths [...]

Choice of Many trials again at Rosehill tomorrow. He has drawn a really tough trial as there are a couple of particularly nice horses in it; Manhattan Rain is a half-brother to champion sire Redoute’s Choice, and is a son of champion sire Encosta De Lago; and Real Saga is already a Listed Race winner. [...]

Choice of Many had his first trial testerday at Rosehill. He missed the start and stargazed a bit (something that often happens with young horses), but he pulled up well and should have another trial in early January. The stable also says that he has discovered what girls are all about too, so it looks [...]

I have just heard news that my Choisir colt Choice of Many, is due to have his first trial at Rosehill on Tuesday 23rd December. Racehorses (especially young ones) are a lesson in patience, but it will be nice to finally have one reach the track – even if it is only a trial – [...]
