Royal lodge colt

Most of us here are appreciative of buyers of yearlings and understand your enthusiasm. In answer to your specific question, the age of a stallion can affect fertility, but not ability. Can you enlighten us further as to the dam of your yearling, being the other half of the genetic equation?

Thanks for your reply Formtwist,the Colt is Royal Applause xGuisina Mia,fought at D B S Aug silver sale and in training with Kevin Ryan, Also since posting this message I have just bought a %10 share in a yearling filly by Casamento x Angel bright in training with Ben Hanbury,your thoughts would be greatly appreciated,P S the syndicate is called ONTOAWINNER who had the Cornwalliss winner in Quiet reflection also the mill reef winner in to cool for chool

Think Ben Hanbury has retired.
Do you mean Ben Haslam?
Good luck with your yearlings.

Yes sorry onslow Ben Haslem,thanks for your good wishes

I have the oddest sensation of this thread being akin to solving a cryptic crossword! However, your syndicate has a good record, you have top trainers and the pedigrees are good for the job. Best of luck, will keep an eye on results.

Doubt you could say Ben Haslem was a top trainer tbh, I was at his stables recently and to say they appear nearly as old as the castle ajoining them would be a fair assesment .

Sorry Roya applause ,not Royal lodge ,he is now a gelding and as yet is not named

My Royal Applause gelding has been named Backinanger

Well the long awaited day has arrived this sunday17/7/16 Backinanger makes his debut in the first race at Redcar,should be a good learning experience for him,Kevin Ryan's horses are going well so that is a positive

The very best of luck to you. Redcar is an excellent track for an owner and a young horse

Well waited since last October to see my horse run booked a hotel for my wife and I for two nights,being severely disabled it is hard work for my wife to get me to and around the race track but she does remarkedly well.we get to the races and my horse Backinanger finishes last beat by a distance ,but I've not to worry as they say he will come on for the run.Hard game this horse ownership,oh ell got 3 more unraced so maybe a winner amongst them

Enjoy the experience DR,your horse is in good hands and will hopefully have learned from its first run.

All the best.
