We have made the decision to skip Royal Ascot with Cy Fair. George felt like she wasn't acting her usual self the past few days. Out of an abundance of caution, we missed her final breeze for Ascot and didn't feel comfortable shipping her yesterday until we felt she was 100%. She is completely sound and hopefully will be back on the work tab in the next week or two. @pshelton8 @jakeballis @reaganswinbank @mstanton1975 @taylormademark

Epsom went to a lot of effort to reinvigorate The Hill this year but they've been beaten by the uncontrollable weather

Plenty of effort made to reinvigorate Epsom this year with lots of new structures. But it all still revolves around the most famous winning post in racing

We wish Captain Guinness the best of luck as he sets off to start his 2nd career and a very pampered retirement. He’s been a firm yard favourite, and gave us an unforgettable day winning The 2024 Champion Chase - a race he ran in 4 times, finishing 4th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st.

Really sad to report that we lost one of our star horses Crowd Quake, he had a heart attack doing routine work. He was a sensational horse for us & a massive character, he leaves a huge hole in our hearts
