Certainly Kingsclere is historic, its past respected and revered, but it is less a place of yesterday, than of today and the future.

On Saturday, we said a very sad yet proud goodbye to Kalpana as she heads off for retirement. She is a wonderful mare who brought us so many happy days and created some very special memories.

Kalpana achieved incredible things, she won four Group 1s, including the King George this summer, collected north of £2.8 million in prize money and was placed in 17 races. She will always be remembered as a yard favourite by everyone who had the pleasure of being a part of her journey. Her extraordinary way of going was what set her apart, always relaxed, straightforward and a pleasure to train.

Thank you to Shannon, her groom, who has looked after her since she came to Kingsclere, who described her as “the perfect racehorse”. Tyla who rode her every morning, and has played a huge part in the making of such a special mare. Thanks to Barry her barn manager for never missing a beat with her, and everyone else involved.

She has been the horse of a lifetime. Thank you to the whole team at home, Juddmonte for lending us the privilege to train her… and thank you Kalpana.

Andrew.

100 BEST TURNED OUT WINNERS IN 2026 🏆

A big milestone for the team, and evidence of the hard work and dedication of the grooms. Every one of these comes down to the work that goes in at home and on the day… the plaiting, the quarter marks and the hours of care that make the horses look the way they do.

Congratulations and a huge thank you to every groom who has led one up this year, and to the travelling team who get the horses there looking their best 👏

Another week to remember for the team with 11 winners🥇

Including our 6th Group 1 of the year in Blue Bolt, who scored her hat-trick in Leopardstown 🏆

A treble at Chester on Saturday courtesy of @venn_hutchinson means the yard is clear in the Chester Trainers Championship, an accolade which reflects the hard work of the team across the whole country.

Well done to everyone involved, and thank you to the team at home for keeping the show on the road… long may it last!

Swipe for the winners 👉

🏆 Blue Bolt wins the Matron Stakes! 🏆

To take her record to 5/5 this season, and securing her third at the highest level, Blue Bolt was emphatic under @ctkjockey as she quickened clear to beat a quality field for @juddmonte.

She is looked after by @izzylienden, regularly ridden by @alfieredman03 and is under the watch of barn manager @barry_stafford94 who have all played a massive part in her success this year 👏

Forbidden Fire defeated the boys in the Listed Flying Scotsman to take her record to 2/2 🔥

Out of Arabian Queen, this pocket rocket is a half sister to the likes of See the Fire, Venetian Prince and Spirit Mixer and she showed her class winning gamely under @oisindmurphy for Mr Jeff Smith and Littleton Stud.

Congratulations to her groom @shann.95 and regular rider @_emilyivory 👏

Plage De Havre won the Listed Stand Cup at Chester 🏆

Following his success at York, Plage De Havre carried @venn_hutchinson to his first British Listed winner, a huge achievement for our very own Kingsclere Apprentice Graduate.

Well done to @sandile_gift_mbhele who rides him everyday, and @chetan.singh109 who looks after him 🙌

Primal got off the mark under a strong @marcoghiani99 drive at @doncasterraces 🥇

Congratulations to his owner Michael Blencowe, groom @jasonsmitsdorff and another winner for @sandile_gift_mbhele!

Beresford Gap made all the running @doncasterraces under @oisindmurphy to get off the mark for Martin and Valerie Slade @mvspinney!

Congratulations to his groom @lilly.walker150, Beresford Gap brought up our 3rd 2 year old winner of the St Leger Festival.

YORK EBOR FESTIVAL 🏆

6 Winners across the 4 Days for the Team! Congratulations to everyone involved… it is an incredible achievement for all of the team at home who are at the core in making these weeks possible, and a true representation of the hard work and dedication which happens behind the scenes day to day.

SWIPE TO SEE THE WINNERS 👉👉

@yorkraces

ITEM WINS THE JUDDMONTE INTERNATIONAL 🥇

To take his record at York this year to 3/3, Item denied some of the best horses in the world, overcame a disrupted passage up the straight under @ctkjockey, and most importantly was only able to get to the races thanks to the hard work from the team behind him. Groom @baz_lewis_, Yard Manager @fabry_spec and others, from the farrier Ben to @paul_morkan all made an incredible effort to make sure Item got to York in his best form, and it was worth it.

Congratulations to owners @juddmonte 🙌

KALPANA HOLDS ON IN THE YORKSHIRE OAKS 🥇

Backing up her incredible win in the King George and QE Stakes, Kalpana showed her class and bravery to hold on in the Group 1 Yorkshire Oaks. An incredible achievement for groom @shann.95, rider @x.tyla.x and Barn Manager @barry_stafford94 in keeping her in such amazing shape through a relatively quick turnaround from Ascot.

Again, @ctkjockey worked his magic for owners @juddmonte to win a 5th Group 1 in 6 weeks for the yard 💛

Machadadorp got her head back in front under @oisindmurphy for owners Cayton Park Stud to complete a 4 timer for the yard on Thursday.

Well done to @lily.jessup who looks after, and everyone who has ridden her at home 👏

Prizeland was emphatic in the Galtres Stakes, and proved her quality following a brave 2nd in the Glasgow Stakes. Well done to all those involved… ridden by @oisindmurphy for the Wates Family, and looked after and regularly ridden by @midemarc0 🏆

The Lost King backed up his last success at York in impressive style under a tactically perfect @oisindmurphy ride. Congratulations to owners @kingpowerofficial, and @mparm_ar19 who led him up… a huge achievement for all who are involved with him. The Lost King is out of the Kingsclere trained “King Power”, making the success even more special.

Today we celebrate Pat McGuire’s birthday, the “most experienced” member of the Kingsclere team, who turned 88 years of age today.

Pat began his time in racing with William Huntingdon at West Ilsley until he moved to Kingsclere in 2000 to work for Ian. Pat rode out well into his 60s, as well as breaking in yearlings, and now, is a crucial member of the ground staff team…

Thank you for all you have done Pat, and a very happy birthday 🎂

The past month has epitomised what this wonderful sport means to those involved. The team at Kingsclere have been phenomenal, and have been dually rewarded with three Group 1s by these two special fillies; Kalpana on the left, and Blue Bolt on the right. We are so grateful for the hard work, dedication and bond of this group throughout the year, and we look forward to seeing what else the season has in store.

Thank you to Alice for the photos.
