Wow. I hope she’s good! I never thought we’d secure Sottsass’s sister. Just a beautiful athletic filly with a tremendous pedigree that she’ll always have. Hopefully she can take her Bahraini owners to the big time.

One of life’s true gentlemen - RIP Sheikh Hamdan. When I was at Dick Hern’s, he’d come to the stable in the Spring having not seen many of the 25 or so 2yos since the autumn sales. He could identify most of them without being told. He had honour, loyalty & was a real sportsman.
🥇 BRADSELL (GB) - Gr.2 Coventry S.
🥇 ELDAR ELDAROV (GB) - Gr.2 Queen's Vase
🥇 ROHAAN - Wokingham S.
We reckon it'll be a while before the smile is wiped off
@OStLawrence
's face! 7 horses bought by the bloodstock agent ran at Royal Ascot this week - 3 won and 2 finished 2nd.
I’m speechless. ELDAR ELDAROV follows up BRADSELL’s win. Two runners two winners. Please can Royal Ascot finish now as it cant continue can it!!

I bought this winning filly in 2013 for 8,000 Guineas. The pedigree has had massive updates from 4 Black Type half-sisters including 1,000 Guineas winner LOVE, Gr2 winner LUCKY KRISTALE & Gr3 winners PEACH TREE & FLATTERING.

Richly deserved for a true people person who would go out of his way to help anyone. A man of real integrity who can talk easily to royalty or a hard working guy in a stable. Someone I am proud to call a friend.
Heartwarming video! Great to have the support of my wife, who was at Ascot, and our children & dogs whilst watching Bradsell storm to victory in the Gr1 King’s Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot yesterday.
Feeling rather pleased with myself having bought 4 Breeding Rights to Ardad over the last few months. The stallion looks rock solid, he will fill a major hole in the British stallion ranks and can keep a smile on my client’s & my faces. Well done

Lots of lovely winter dreams to be had.
So very pleased for Sh Nasser’s Victorious Racing winning the Group 1 King’s Stand with BRADSELL on the same day he won the Coventry Stakes last year. What a day.
What a sire ARDAD is proving with yet another 2yo winner at Bath - Vaunted trained by Clive Cox. Nominations available at sensible price from shareholders.
