Here’s a quick peak at what Native River’s been up to lately on his summer holidays. His first public appearance since retirement was to chauffeur his young rider to the local school prom!
🎩 💃🏼 🟣🟡🔴
Native River doing what he does best winning trophy’s - won both classes 🥇🥇 and qualified for 2024 Hickstead ROR , what a legend , ridden by Emma Cudd and lovely to see him so happy in his new job 🥰🥰
From the first day The Broome’s seen Native River and purchased him, it’s been an amazing journey
Pleased to say he will have an amazing retirement at Webb Hill Farm with plenty for him to do living just a few miles away from his owners. Here’s a little clip of when we first met!
As sad a day as I’ve ever had today , we have had some fun together with horses but he became a friend in the end and I’m absolutely gutted for his family , Rest In Peace my friend
#Richardwoollacott
Leaving Cheltenham tonight was an extremely proud moment - to be part of sourcing 4 winners , 3 of them grade 1s -Stage Star , Envoi Allen and Stay Away Fay, a multiple grade 1 horse winning the X country in Delta Work,top it off Bravemansgame in GC - 💥✈️
Thanks , heard it now, disagree with Ruby - “just put them in training” isn’t viable for some of these men that have already outlaid hundreds of thousands of pounds and then have there livelihood taken out of there control , easy statement to make with no investment
@irishp2p
So proud of Black Corton who jumped for fun and led them into the straight in the Galway Plate under 11st-10 only to be hampered by a loose horse. Great effort with Bryony in the saddle for the Brooks Family, Jeremy Kyle &
@PFNicholls
👏
It’s a tough old game this at times and really hard to take the loss of any horse. Our condolences go to the McNeil Family and the guys in the yard at Ditcheat who looked after Act Of Valour. Here he is at home enjoying leading the string.
winners today are insignificant.
