The 12-year-old Twilight Son was an absentee when Cheveley Park recently announced their roster and fees for 2025, having spent eight seasons in Newmarket since he retired there as the winner of six of his 10 career starts for Henry Candy, including the G1 Sprint Cup at Haydock as a three-year-old and G1 Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot the...

There will be a time in the future when Sir Michael Stoute stands as a figure of fond recall in these parts, so his final Cambridgeshire meeting is something for the purists to savour as Newmarket begins its autumn-long farewell symphony in honour of one of its favourite adopted sons. Denied of late the frequency of elite 2-year-olds that was once a given at Freemason Lodge, the Barbadian has at least one more who could fit into that bracket with unerring timing in TDN Rising Star Formal (GB) (Dubawi {Ire})....

Sir Michael Stoute trainee Anna Swan (GB) (Almanzor {Fr}--Vivionn {GB}, by Dubawi {Ire}), a G1 Fillies' Mile entry who notched an impressive 5 1/2-length win at Great Yarmouth last month, remained on an upward trajectory and made all to post a two-length tally in Friday's Dubai Duty Free Full Of Surprises British EBF Fillies' Conditions Stakes at Newbury.   🇬🇧 British EBF Fillies' Conditions Stakes @NewburyRacing @BritishEBF Newbury - Classe 2 - 2 ans - 1408m - 4 Pts 🏆Anna Swan 🏇William Buick @WilliamBuickX 📖(Almanzor (Fr) @Haras_d_Etreham - Vivionn (Gb)...

Sir Michael Stoute, who announced his impending retirement earlier in the day, was very much in business-as-usual mode as 'TDN Rising Star' Formal (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}--Veracious {GB}, by Frankel {GB}) added to her impressive debut success at Newbury in July with an equally taking 2 1/2-length tally in Tuesday's British EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes at Leicester. 3rd-Leicester, £9,000, Nov, 9-10, 2yo, f, 7fT, 1:29.82, sf.

Vandeek (GB), the brilliant dual Group 1-winning juvenile, has been retired and will stand at Cheveley Park Stud.  The highest-rated son of Havana Grey (GB), Vandeek landed the Prix Morny and the Middle Park Stakes in what was a spellbinding two-year-old campaign in 2023.  Last seen finishing third being Mill Stream in the July Cup, the Simon and Ed Crisford-trained Vandeek retired as a winner of four of his six starts and with a peak official rating of 119. He joins Twilight Son, Ulysses and Unfortunately on the Cheveley Park...

Saturday's action sees the winding-up of York's Ebor Festival and a trio of exciting juvenile races at The Curragh and Goodwood, with the Knavesmire venue boasting the most valuable prize in the G2 City of York Stakes. Cheveley Park Stud's TDN Rising Star Audience (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}) is the star attraction in the seven-furlong feature and it is fair to say that he has turned around his fortunes this term with dynamic successes in the G1 Lockinge Stakes and G2 Lennox Stakes. He may have achieved more when winning under...

Clive Cox trainee Diligently (GB) (Harry Angel {Ire}--Anna Of Lorraine {GB}, by Dutch Art {GB}) had failed to strike in five prior outings, but timed his breakthrough success to perfection and swooped late to garner Thursday's £626,462 Harry's Half Million By Goffs Premier Yearling Stakes at York. The February-foaled bay, a 30,000gns Tattersalls December foal turned £100,000 Goffs UK Premier yearling, was positioned in a handy seventh after an alert getaway in this six-furlong contest. Inching closer from halfway, the 22-1 chance was bustled along to go fourth entering the...

Cheveley Park Stud's Chancellor (GB) (Kingman {GB}) collected a 'TDN Rising Star' rosette at Doncaster last month, before hitting the board in Ascot's Listed Pat Eddery Stakes, and regained the winning thread with an impressive 3 1/4-length tally in Saturday's British EBF Future Stayers Novice Stakes upon his return to Town Moor. The well-backed 8-13 favourite, who is a homebred son of GI Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf heroine Queen's Trust (GB) (Dansili {GB}), was the slowest of four into stride and recovered to claim an early advantage at...
