Have a little read about Lewis, our last start winner!

If you’ve spotted The Merc at the races lately, you might have noticed his warm-up looks a little different.
Co-trainer Jo Ferguson has been using ridden work to help him strengthen up, settle and, most importantly, enjoy his job again. And lately, that’s followed him all the way to race day.
So what’s the thinking behind it, and is it working?
Full story in the comments.

An absolute pleasure to have this guy through the place - a horse with character by the bucket load and no shortage of personality - out there proving that age really is just a number💪

Congratulations to Ralph, Sarah and the team on another great result! 🎉✅
