Hambleton-based Kevin Ryan guides us through the pick of his strong team for 2019 including a Classic crop that is getting him excited.
Three to Follow...
Flag-bearer: Major Jumbo - he's now looking like the sprinter we thought he'd become and I'd say he's only just getting his full strength.
On the upgrade: Secret Venture will be a great horse to follow with a bit of luck, starting this weekend.
Exciting two-year-old: We've a nice bunch of two-year-olds including several for Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum. There's a Siyouni colt we're particularly looking forward to although it's early days with the juveniles.
My Stable - Horse Tracking Made Simple
It’s that time of the year when the Flat season takes centre stage. With thousands of horses, hundreds of jockeys and plenty of trainers performing across the UK & Ireland in multiple meetings every single day, it can be tough to keep track of all that catches your eye. But not any longer. Our My Stable service is the simple and perfect way to stay on top (and ahead) of the game.
Guide to the team...
Emaraaty Ana
He runs in the 2000 Guineas and he's in great form.
I think the step up in trip will really suit and he likes fast ground so that won't be a problem if it came up quick.
He's developed really well from two to three. He always looked a little bit on the weak side as a two-year-old, even Frankie (Dettori) said that after he rode him in the Gimcrack. He said he felt a little weak still so that suggests there should be more to come from what he showed as a two-year-old.
He's an exciting colt.
