NEW SYNDICATE – Alfa Kellenic’s Sister Now Available 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇  We are delighted to introduce our new syndicate horse, A 2yo unraced filly by Mohaather, a Group winner as a 2yo, 3yo and 4yo latterly winning the coveted Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood. Mohaather is the highest rated son of Showcasing, and he’s made an excellent start as a stallion himself. His progeny includes the 117 rated Big Mojo, a three time Group winner including the Group One Betfair Sprint Cup Stakes at Haydock, the progressive Cape Orator who was placed in the Group One Criterium International, the Listed Rose Bowl Stakes winner Ya Mo Be There, as well as a whole host of other promising types.   However, the most exciting part about becoming involved in this filly is that she is a half sister to Alfa Kellenic, a name synonymous with the success of Craig Lidster. Alfa Kellenic shaped with promise in her first two starts for the yard despite being tricky to keep right in the initial stages, before comfortably landing a Newcastle Maiden by four lengths.  The Newcastle success was the first leg of a historic six timer for Alfa Kellenic, who was expertly nursed through ranks from a mark of 70, peaking 31lbs higher at a mark of 101. Her successes included a sentimental triumph at York in June, giving Craig Lidster his first win at his local track York, a stage where any trainer is thrilled to perform on. Alfa Kellenic then took the Ayr Gold Cup trial by a short head, before returning to York to land a valuable £51,540 prize at the heralded Ebor Festival.   Her ceiling hadn’t quite yet been reached, as she won the Ayr Silver Cup under a 5lbs penalty in fashionable style, breaking a course record in the process, becoming a rare three year old winning filly of that contest especially off near top-weight.  Improving a filly 31lbs and amassing over £130,000 in prize money is a testament to the capabilities of the team at Craig Lidster’s, and we are thrilled to have her half-sister in the hope she can take us on a similar journey. This represents an excellent opportunity to get involved in a well-bred filly at an accessible level. Availability is expected to be limited. The filly is E.B.F. nominated, and eligible for GBB Flat (100%), adding further long-term value.   Opportunities like this, combining pedigree depth, eligibility bonuses and affordable lease entry points, don’t tend to stay open for long.   Enquire your interest today: 📧 Sales@craiglidsterracing.co.uk to reserve your share..

💥NEW winner for LOPE Y FERNANDEZ💥 🥇𝗦𝗮𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝗲 made all @Beverley_Races to win decisively by 4L under @samjock22. It was an impressive performance on her second start from a tough draw. Congratulations trainer @Jmorelandracing & Owner @NBradleyRacing👏 #LYF #winner

Stop taking us for fools @arenaracingco. Rohilla a non runner 3 times on vet certs this calendar year and every time her declaration made that particular race divide. (16 decs first two times and 18 on Saturday). Are we really expected to believe this is coincidence?

Exciting to see LOPE Y FERNANDEZ off the mark with a very impressive debut winner 🙌🙌 Congratulations to all connections, an exciting season ahead for LYF 🚀
