Our filly is still enjoying her time out at Benjomar Park.
A few weeks ago she picked up a small cold, which can happen with young horses in paddocks, but should be over that now. Otherwise she is doing fine.
Brett has told me she will be the last of the horses to be broken in, given that she is likely to not start racing until 3yo and a later maturing horse. This will probably be in about 2 or more months time.

Prior to this, Brett managed the racing stables of one of the best trainers of his day, Bill Pope, his father and mentor. As stable foreman for Bill Pope, Brett forged the impressive record of 17% winners and 40% placegetters from 136 starters in the 2007 season.When Bill retired at the end of the 06/07 racing season, Brett's intimate knowledge of the stable and its horses allowed him to continue with that record into the 07/08 season.
His stats to date are 77 starters for 10.4% winners and 32.5% place getters.
Brett's stables are on Racecourse Road Pinjarra, a stones throw
He's young, passionate and history shows he knows his horseflesh.
