Colin Native River Gold Cup.jpeg

Colin's astonishing career saw him rank highly amongst national hunt trainers for a number of years, and as the license is handed over to Joe, we can reflect on the wonderful achievements and training feats that we saw in the 28 years of horses running under Colin’s name. 32 Grade 1’s, 36 Grade 2’s, 18 Grade 3’s, 17 Listed races, £15.7 million in prize money, and only a couple of the big races remaining illusive.

 

First grade 1 success came when the small and gallant Joe Lively won the Feltham’s at Kempton in 2007, and the role of honour that was to follow has seen the yard consistently sit amongst the highest in national hunt racing. The list of merits achieved, with multiple horses, is a feat not reached by many, and of course the stable stars that are held in such high regard will be remembered as some of the best of their era.

Great merit is also very much owed to Colin's daughter Kim, whom we all know was a huge factor in the smooth running of the yard and subsequent success, and is dearly missed by friends, family and the whole team. Colin’s right hand women who was so key throughout the years and deserves as much recognition for her passion and hard work.

Colin remains heavily involved in the training operation and still enjoys watching horses on the gallops every morning. He has also ventured into breeding and currently has a handful of broodmares with foals at foot, and big plans for the future.
