We're still celebrating Kensington Court and Sue Lyman's win in Tuesday's inaugural $25,000 Upperville Thoroughbred Hunter Derby!

Julie knew Sue was just the person for him when it was time to retire and they've been a very successful team. In fact, he'd earned Reserve Champion honors four times at Upperville C**t & Horse Show in the past!

The 14-year-old gelded son of Giant’s Causeway was a winner on the flat and over jumps in his 19-race career

We were thrilled to see former trainee Kensington Court win the inaugural Thoroughbred Hunter Derby at Upperville C**t & Horse Show yesterday!

We claimed him in August of 2015 as a 3 year old and he quickly proved to be a promising jumper. He had an incredible brain, was a beautiful mover - a classic “daisy cutter” - and took right to jumping.

He always did automatic lead changes and we were able to get him to the races six weeks later to finish second his first time over jumps. He had a successful steeplechasing career, winning three of his starts with two seconds and a third - including in the Supreme Hurdle S. before retiring after winning his final start at Rosie's Gaming and Colonial Downs in 2019.

When it was time for “Kenny” to retire, I knew who to call and it was Sue Lyman. She immediately liked and bought him and the rest is history!

Everyone always loves the grays, so how about a throwback to our two gray boys schooling over the winter?

As Consolation Prize prepares to make his National Steeplechase Association debut at Fair Hill on Monday, we thought it'd be fun to look back on his first time over the roll in December. Joining us in November, he was given a lead by Little G T for this experience.

Shown here schooling in January behind Fulmineo when they were both learning to jump, Lord Narcisse put in a promising third-place finish performance at Radnor this weekend when he finished only 2 1/2 lengths behind the winner and eight lengths ahead of the the rest of the field in his second start.

We were joined by Laird George on Carls Badge this week with the pair leading Consolation Prize and Sam in a schooling session. Carls Badge is headed to Potomac on Sunday with Consolation Prize heading to Fair Hill next week.

We have Lord Narcisse headed to Radnor this weekend to run in the first race and he also played teacher while he was putting in his final schooling before his start. Lord and Sam led Retouch and Harry Beswick through their own schooling session yesterday with Retouch aiming for a race next week.

Did you know that on this week in 2024 Riverdee Stable/Clancy Bloodstock's Fulmineo won the James W. Murphy S. on the Preakness Stakes undercard? Two years later, he's now embracing a steeplechasing career and finished second in his National Steeplechase Association debut last month.

Want to kick off your Tuesday afternoon with a ride on a stakes horse?

Join Sam aboard Holiday Charm a few months ago as they schooled with Shannon Hill Farm's Sliabh Aughty and Bryan Cullinane over timber after Sliabh Aughty spent the winter fox hunting.
