Milnerton trainer Joey Ramsden signalled that he means business this SA Champions Season
Milnerton based Joey Ramsden is one of three trainers to have been allocated boxes by the Singapore Turf Club
‘He’s a nice horse and if he is not too green can run well’- Joey Ramsden on his runner in the first race
I am a firm believer in the adage that the horse finds you. Even when you don’t know you are looking. As it turns out, these might be the best ones of all.
After running second in 2018 with Rose In Bloom, he returned to the scene on Saturday with his trojan filly and made amends in style.
Joey Ramsden may well be looking forward to many servings of crispy duck after he produced first and third in his opening attack this season on the 2yo programme
“I’m more nervous when running my first 2yo’s of the season than saddling the odds-on favourite for the Queen’s Plate! You know in 70 odd seconds if it’s going to be all duck or no dinner for the next 12 months – or worse!”
Joey Ramsden’s R20 000 Master Of My Fate colt Twist Of Fate maintained his moneyspinning march up the ladder for his Mauritius connections with a facile victory
Can the son of Twice Over emulate the Mike Bass runners Trademark and the awesome Pocket Power as only the third horse to achieve the July-Queen’s Plate double this century
The race they are all talking about – and the pic they are all raving about
Just 48 hours after Cheeky Wink’s smart win at Tipperary, the Kieswetter and Heffer families enjoyed another champagne moment at Sandown
Ridgemont’s Rafeef fairytale received more endorsement on the Championships Finale at Turffontein on Saturday when his daughter, Chasing Happiness, ran her eight opponents off their feet to register her second stakes success when winning the TAB Gr2 Senor Santa Stakes
The number of entries compares favourably in quantum with recent years, with 58 first entries received in 2024, 60 in 2023, 68 in 2022, 53 in 2021, 52 in 2020, 49 in 2019, and 69 in 2018
Ironically, it was a colt which provided Alan with a first Gr1 success, this being Alec and Gillian Foster’s homebred Cereus, who landed the 2001 Gold Cup at Hollywoodbets Greyville, his victory completing a momentous double on the day, with the Gr2 Golden Slipper having gone the way of juvenile filly Tatler, a great-great-great grandaughter of Sun Lass!
