Mrs John Harrington, better know as Jessica, had the honour, or should i say responsibility, to train one of the most iconic horses of the modern era of National Hunt racing. I don’t think that this is an overstatement, and no one could have forseen the amazing career that Moscow Flyer would embark upon. His presence at the Cheltenham Festival was many racegoers highlight of the entire 3 days, as it was then. He ran 45 times in total, winning 27...
We selected this race photo, not due to the fact that it was Finian’s Rainbow, but as we felt that it was just a really amazing shot, and that you may like to see it, simple as that. For the record the photo was taken at the 2009 Grand National meeting. The photo shows Finian’s Rainbow and Barry Geraghty jumping the last when winning the Grade 1 John Smith’s Maghull Novices’ Chase with Ruby Walsh on the Paul Nicholls trained Ghizao...

Arkle or Best Mate? That was the main subject of discussion in the racing press in the lead up to this, the 2004 Cheltenham Gold Cup. Who was the greatest of them all? All i can say, without hesitation, is that Best Mate was a very serious bit of kit. His record tells you everything you need to know, from 22 starts under rules, he won 14 and came second on 7 occasions.The only time Best Mate didn’t finish first or second was in his final race when...
Every time i see this photo it makes me smile. Christophe Soumilon was caught on camera during his rather cheeky win aboard Hurricane Run in the 2006 renewal of the King George vi and Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes at Ascot. The race, as it transpired, was his final ever victory beating Electrocutionist and the Japnaeese trained Heart’s Cry. His finest moment was undoubtedly his victory in the 2005 Prix de L’arc de Triomphe, ridden on that day...
Strangely enough from all the horse racing photos i’ve seen of Frankel, during what has been a stellar year for him, this is my favourite. It was taken as he cantered down to the start for the 2000 Guineas way back in May. Away from the stands and the expectant crowd, a few moment for Tom Queally to gather his thoughts and for all those connected to the horse to just pray everything goes to plan. A few minutes later we all knew we’d seen...
