Introduction I hope that you all enjoyed Cheltenham last week? I was doing daily emails to my shareholders and I was a fraction up on the week but that was only half the story with two very profitable days and two very bad ones! Fortunately, it all added up to no real damage done. I …

BG Racing – Update 10-03-25
Introduction Longer than anticipated between updates again, but in my defence, I definitely would have sent this last week, but I ended up being taken to hospital in an ambulance on Wednesday, where I was diagnosed with blood clots in my lungs. I was in until Friday but seemed to recover better than expected. I …
BG Racing – Update 17-02-25
Introduction I hope that you had a good weekend. I must admit that my enjoyment of the weekend was very much impacted by the news that jockey Michael O’Sullivan had passed away yesterday morning. He suffered a bad fall last week and had been in intensive care until the announcement that he had not recovered from …
BG Racing – Update 04-02-25
Introduction Again, I have not had much to say, hence the gap between updates, but hopefully things will start to ramp up with Bella Cavalla in the coming weeks. I am down at the stables at the weekend, so will do some photos and videos for shareholders then. After the retirement of Stryder, BG Racing …
BG Racing – Update 10-01-25
Introduction I hope that you all had an enjoyable festive period and that 2025 is treating you well so far! I am intending to issue more frequent BG Racing updates going forward, as Bella Cavalla is back in training this week after a break. I started to draft an update over Christmas but there really …
BG Racing – Update 09-12-24
Introduction Even by my standards over a month between updates is a long gap, but on this occasion, I did have a valid reason for the radio silence. Bella Cavalla shareholders had communications when she ran and knew that she was going to have a break, so there was not much more to say about …
BG Racing – Update 04-11-24
Introduction Over a week again with this task sitting on my task list! Not sure where the time goes. Since the last update, we have seen Bella Cavalla run again and we were supposed to see Stryder back in action as well, but he did not read the script and bruised his foot three days …
BG Racing – Update 15-10-24
Introduction Well, that is a new record (and not a good one) as it is over a month since my last update! Two and a half weeks were spent in Scotland and with Stryder renewals due on the 1st September and Bella Cavalla running while I was away, I was flat out before I went …
BG Racing – Update 13-09-24
Introduction Another hectic couple of weeks, each horse ran, both produced performances that if you had shown me the results alone I would have been disappointed, but both runs gave us plenty of hope for the future. As well as releasing my September podcast, we also needed to record early for October and it has …
BG Racing – Update 27-08-24
Introduction Where does the time go? I looked back for the last update and found it has been three weeks! I thought it was about 10 days since I did the last one, so please accept my apologies. I have been busy though. My wife and I finally completed walking the 180-odd miles of the …
