Up for sale for 3 500. Has been 'retrained ' apparently. He's won the owners plenty of money. Could they not have paid for him to retire somewhere?

He was bought by Darren and Annaley Yates for £300,000 in February 2019, when he was sent into training with Dan Skelton and this is where he stayed until his retirement from racing.
Blaklion Upon Blaklion’s retirement, David Norcross bought the horse from Mr Yates, and he was sent to Lancashire-based rider Alice Pimbley for retraining. 300k!!! Every single racehorse should be available for anybody to look up post their racing career, not the current 40%. |

From memory Darren Yates bought the most expensive NH horse ever sold at public auction (Until 2 weeks ago) and unfortunately for him all it managed after he bought it was a couple of of runs in nov chases and then retired.
Personally I think it very poor form how some owners deal with their retired horses. Some have very little class sadly. Why would you sell an old friend who has served you well ? |
