Nicky Henderson’s El Kaldoun was a landmark winner for racehorse ownership syndicate Middleham Park Racing at Lingfield as it brought up their 1000th success.

Well established as the most successful syndicate in the UK, Middleham Park was launched in 1995 by Tim Palin — who is still a driving force to this day, with Mike Prince having joined as a partner.

They could not really have chosen a better horse to begin life with because their original runner, China Castle, went on to win 26 times — and they now have more than 100 in training.

With Group One wins in three countries, they are the proof that the man in the street can taste big-time glory in the sport of kings.
