Surrey Quest enters a new chapter in his life as he is now in retirement following a wonderful career that has given us a lot of memories. He retires happy and content and is already in the paddock with his slippers on!

No runners at the festival for us this year but plenty happening as we gear up towards the end of the NH season and look forward to the turf season on the flat.

No runners this week but a busy few months ahead with Surrey Lord and Surrey Quest back racing, and next month we’ll have two classy three years in action.

We are looking ahead to a change in the weather to see Surrey Lord and Surrey Quest back in action, hopefully Kempton in March, a happy hunting ground for Surrey Lord.

Rain, rain and more rain thwart the plans for the next races for Surrey Quest and Surrey Lord - it will stop at some point!

A quiet week with more of the same next week. Injuries are the main concern, as well as the increasing cost of racehorse ownership in England.

Plenty of rain soaked ground around so no runners until the ground firms.

The soft ground didn’t help Surrey Quest who suffered with a wind issue in the Surrey National despite really enjoying a great round of jumping. .

A very credible run from Surrey Lord at Ascot’s Clarence House meeting yesterday, he’ll be winning again before the season is over! Tomorrow Surrey Quest runs in the Surrey National at Lingfield.

Another injury soured last week but thankfully Surrey Etoile was saved and had a successful operation to repair a fractured pastern. We wish him well. The always improving Surrey Lord could be back (on ITV) at the weekend having won 3 of his last 4 outings.

A solid but not spectacular 2026 for Surrey Racing, with as many ups as downs, we review the year in the newsletter.

Surrey Lord put in his best ever performance to give us a Boxing Day to remember at Kempton Park, a super way to end the year in style.

A very sad day at Lingfield today as the very talented Sea Presenting didn’t return home to Henfold House.

A break from Christmas shopping to see Sea Presenting this week, either at Ludlow or the favoured, and more hospitable, Lingfield Park. She’s due a win having not been out of the top three in all her races.

Surrey Lord was only 2 lengths from a hattrick - he’ll be back soon to make up for that. Surrey Quest needs a wind op but there’s plenty of fight left in him. A quiet week ahead ….

A pretty good week with a 1st from Surrey Lord and a fantastic second from the returning Sea Presenting. Surrey Lord may look for his hattrick this week, and Surrey Quest returns at the weekend, exciting times!

An exciting week ahead as the improving Surrey Lord looks for back to back victories tomorrow at Kempton and Sea Presenting returns are a lengthy lay off at Lingfield on Thursday.
Two local courses - it would be nice to be celebrating at both!

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

It was nice to celebrate a win this week when Surrey Lord won in Wales. We sold Surrey Shadow and Surrey Fire and wish them well.

Surrey Lord has a great chance to break his maiden at Ffos Las on Tuesday as we head into the darker days, it would be nice to have a shining light !

A new purchase, and two horses hopefully running well this week, with Surrey Shadow declared at Yarmouth on Tuesday and Surrey King making his debut at Newbury on Friday - he has shown a lot of promise in his work so far… read on for more details
