VIRGILIO, purchased at the Arqana July sale in 2012,  wins easily in Richard Venn’s colours at LES SABLES D’OLONNE under W.Denuault on Friday 25th October 2013.  Trained by Etienne Leenders in France, this horse loved the soft ground and jumped beautifully.  He travelled through the race untroubled sitting comfortably in third and quickened up nicely […]

We sponsored the Richard Venn Bloodstock  Handicap Chase at Fontwell today. Congratulations to W F Caudwell and the connections of Saskompliq, the winner of our race. I bought Manjam to race on the day and he came third in the 2.50 Handicap Chase

I was lucky enough to inherit Ivan Allan’s colours earlier this year. Colours made notable by Lester Piggott’s winning ride on Commanche Run in the 1984 St Leger.  The only two times that I have used these colours so far, the horse won!
