Sam's progress

A diary of my (probably mad) attempts to retrain an ex-racehorse.

Found some family history

After chatting with a fellow H&H forum member who also owns an ex racer from the same bloodlines as Sam, I thought I would have a look to see if any of his family were any good at racing (unlike him bless him).

So ... have discovered that his sire won the Coronation Cup ridden by Lester Piggot in 1983 (Be My Native). If that isn't impressive I don't know what is! I shall have to have words with Sam about living up to the family name albeit in the world of dressage (not sure what Lester would think).
