The sun was shining at Manor House Stables this morning, and all the lads had smiles on their faces for Friday morning gallops…

It is the beginning of the new building – these pictures do not show much but if we take a few each week you will be able to watch the new swimming pool complex step by step.

Week 1

This morning the Wynnstay hounds met just down the road from MHS and later on made their way across the far corner of our land. You can just see them in the distance in these pictures.

Manor House Stables would like to welcome Mr John Duffy as a new owner at the yard. Mr Duffy is an owner breeder from Anglesey,North Wales. He has put two home bred fillies into training with Tom. One two year old by Royal Applause and the other a 3 year old by One Cool Cat named Cool Approach. Both fillies are half sisters from a mare named Approaching Storm (Entrepreneur). The fillies are beginning their pre-training work and we hope to see them going up the gallops at MHS shortly. We wish Mr Duffy the best of luck with them.
