One Up, One Down and One in the Middle

 

We had a good day at Windsor races today.

In the first place, one of our clients, Louise Parry of Pantycoed Stud won the Kate Harpham Prime Fillies' Handicap Stakes with the horse, Encircled. She owns the horse in partnership with her brother, Peter.


Here the horse is being led in with Michael Hills on board.


Louise and Peter received the prize from Kate Harpham, who was having her hen party at the racecourse.

The horse is trained by Derek Hadyn Jones at Pontypridd in South Wales.

Encircled was bought as a foal by bloodstock agent, Larry Stratton, on behalf of Louise. Her dam, Ring of Esteem, was also bought at the same time.

The one down was Panda Power, who ran very green and just beat one. Hopefully, she will improve.

On the other hand, we also met Walter Swinburn, who trains the filly, Moonlight Angel, which Celia bred. She ran at Lingfield Park this evening and finished seventh in a very good race.
