An exciting prospect for LE FOU
Wenesday, January 18th
as CEDRE BLEU won his first run over fences and could be a serious contender at the Cheltenham Festival.
The Paul NICCHOLS trained 5 yold won his novice at Newbury in great style, jumping well and staying on impressively.

LE FOU is still standing at Haras du Hoguenet in Normandy at a fee of 1 500€ lf.


Another good day on the track with two winners and a third.
Saturday, January 7th
BLAZON made it 3 wins in 4 starts when winning easely the opener at Deauville. The own brother to French 2000 guineas winner SILVER FROST stormed home by 3 1/2 lengths under a patient ride of Karl MARTIN.
He will be soon going to better things soon and could become a Group performer on time.
CICERON landed a big gamble at Sandown over hurdles and could be next running in the Betfair Handicap at Newbury. Venetia WILLIAMS horses have now hit top gear and it would be no surprise if he wins again.
MASSICOTIER also bounced back to form and finished a very fast 3rd in a 1500meters handicap at Deauville

What a good way to enter 2012!!!! 1 winner and two 2nds at Cheltenham, plus one winner at Exeter...
Sunday, January 1st
We finished 2011 yesterday with TANGO DE JUILLEY finishing an excellent second at Newbury in a very hot novice hurdle and giving 10 pounds to the winner.
We had over 135 winners in 2011 including Grade 1  NH performers AL FEROF , CHELTENIAN, KAUTO STONE, THOUSAND STARS etc but we also had a lot of black type performers on the flat such as CADEAU FOR MAGGI, FLASH DANCE, KADYNY ...

We also have been very busy at the sales toping a couple of them at Arqana.

Today HOUBLON DES OBEAUX won the tough way at Cheltenham holding on the late challenge of KAY ARAMIS, but the biggest satisfaction of he day was to see MON MOME, the 2009 Grand National winner, getting back into great form when finishing 2nd under 12st 11 and showing that he was back in contention for the Grand National 2012...
HECTOR's CHOICE also finished 2nd in a Grade 3 staying on bravely and he will be a great contender to the staying hcps.

Anyway I am wishing you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012 and hope that we will have the chance of cooperating again.
