Enjoy Your Sofa Lass

I received a call today to say that Questhouse Chloe had come in season and the owners have decided that she has done more than enough racing and that she deserves to be retired, Chloe has been a really good honest bitch who had 98 races, winning no fewer than 23(23.5%) and was 2nd in 28 other races, all in shes served both myself and Sean as owners with complete professionalism and I’m sure she’ll soon make herself at home on The Sofa, enjoy yourself lass you truly deserve it.
As most will know, Questhouse Sash has been mated to Ballymac Maeve and I thought it appropriate to collate a few stats for the readers, having raced 55 times of which the majority(37) were in A1’s and Opens, Sash would go onto win 16(29%) times and finish runner up a further 15 times, She won Opens at Hove, Henlow, Harlow, Romford and Walthamstow, being a Daughter of Knockeevan Major who has sired(On Database)744 Off spring, Sash is currently Majors 5th Top performer on the Track.
For the record I retired Sash in 2007 when she dropped in season and when she came in season in 2008 I had just had 2 bitches mated and I had to let her go, this time around it was Droopys Lenas turn to be missed. I always prefer to let the bitches have a season to wind down on retirement and none of my broods have ever been suppressed, I’m sure this helps them immensely and I am really excited about Sash as I truly have a good feeling about her.
January seen the kennels turn out 35 winners(635 in Total) making it a lovely start to the year, this weeks winners were Vote For Pedro(Belle Vue), Questhouse Leigh(Monmore), Farahs Paddy(Newcastle), The Last Baby, Pick n Micks and English Rose all at Hove.
