Miss Kate McGivern

Bellewstown Thu, 2nd Jul, 2026  Grayrobin My colours again, a great day today. We missed the breeze up with this horse. He was never meant to be in training. We had a virus in the yard, he literally couldn't travel because he had a temperature of 40 and it was a no-go. I was devastated. I sent him to Archie and he ran poor (8th, Nottingham), but it was a first run. Then when I had a few left over from the breeze ups, I said I might as well have him in my team since he didn't win first time out. He duly did it there. I was worried with the weight, I really was as a stone more than a few of them. That is two penalties in England. Anyway, he did it and big thanks to Chris and the lads in the yard. I do think a lot of him, I think he would have made a few quid at the breeze up had he of been there but we missed it. Then I thought, maybe if we win, we could go to the Ascot Sale. He was going to Ascot all year and then he missed everything. You just have to take it on the chin. He's a nice horse to have in the yard and no doubt I'll have him well entered up in a few big races. He's for sale.
