Glorious Goodwood was just that, and now we head into August, more sun and more good to firm racetracks - and unfortunately not a Surrey Racing runner on the cards just yet.

Not the best week for horse racing syndicates, but we answer from a Surrey Racing perspective in this week’s newsletter.

World Cup Final Day - good luck to our European friends from Spain.

Frustrating news on the horses .. roll on the good times.

Toby and Clare Lawes have successfully moved the horses to their new (temporary) yard in Lambourn and both our horses have settled in well - Hillsyde Hope looking great in the sun!

A hot week all over the UK last week which is a challenge for everyone and probably a sign of years to come..

All quiet at Surrey Racing with the continued injury woes dominating on the longest day. Frustrating to say the least, hopefully Royal Ascot next year!

All quiet on the Surrey Racing front - we will enjoy Royal Ascot from afar - there’s always next year!

Surrey King’s German Derby aspirations are over but we are convinced he will be performing on the big stage as some point. A little quiet now for a few weeks with no Derby or Oaks entries !

Tom Clover won the 2026 Surrey Racing Golf Day, the second time in 3 years, congrats to him.

Surrey King is running at Kempton this week - hoping the penny will finally drop.

Yesterday we had an enjoyable owners visit to see Surrey Moon and Surrey Bolt at the Clover’s in Newmarket. This week the annual Surrey Racing Golf Day.

It was great to welcome a new horse to the Surrey Racing stable, Hillsyde Hope endured a long 24 hour journey from Ireland but looked remarkably well when he arrived at Toby’s.
No runners this week, Surrey Moon and King poised to run before the month is out.

Surrey King was disappointing in his seasonal reappearance today at Salisbury - he’s so much better than what he showed. Surrey Lord could be at Haydock on Saturday…..

The firm ground meant our two expected runners last weekend didn’t make the start line. Surrey King tries again on Sunday at Salisbury, hopefully some rain arrives before then!

It could be a super Saturday as two of our horses are back in action after some time off. Surrey King takes on some high cost purchases at Leicester while Surrey Lord takes part in the NH finale at Sandown, good luck to all involved.

It’s great to welcome new owners and a new horse and we celebrated both this week after buying Hillsyde Hope following an impressive point to point in Ireland. He joins Toby Lawes and will make his rules debut later this year.

Discussions with the BHA have been the theme of the week, another mad rule is in place that does nothing to support owners.

Stay tuned for a potential new horse joining the stable ….

Reasons to be cheerful - The clocks springing forward a day after the Lincoln .. full steam ahead for the summer and the flat season although we aren’t finished with the NH just set with Surrey Lord who surely has one more win in him this season.

A lovely visit to see Surrey King on Saturday - Group 1 entry still stands … we can’t wait to see him make his seasonal appearance.

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.
