The Horse
SNOW CREEK was purchased for 16,000gns at the recent October HIT Sale and certainly looks a very exciting horse to campaign.
His sire, Wootton Bassett needs no introduction having his fee increased to £300,000 following the victory of Henri Matisse in the Breeders Cup this weekend. His dam hails from a deep family and is herself a half sister to The Champion Miler and Stallion RIBCHESTER.
Standing at 15.3HH, he is a striking physical who has a lovely fluent action and looks like an athlete. He vetted very well and reports from Godolphin were that he was always a horse who had ability and may be one to slip through the net from them.
He has settled in very well with Jack and will trot for two weeks before starting steady cantering.
We feel he is a horse who will be aiming to make his racecourse debut between January/February time all being well.

Progress Report
The Trainer
Since stating his intent to train, Jack has always been someone who appealed to us with his in depth racing knowledge, attention to detail and genuine personality.
Learning from international powerhouses such as Ciaron Maher, Brian Meehan and most recently Ed Dunlop, Jack is certainly a trainer we are sure will thrive and one we look forward to supporting into the future.
