All the older horses have had a full month trotting, they seem to have
enjoyed it and they are all fresh and well within themselves.
Wishing everyone a Happy Christmas from Nicky Vaughan Racing.
Gee Major, Iron Step and Supercast are certainly getting
into the festive spirit.

Its exactly a month since
Iron Step won at Leicester on turf, but tonight back on the polytrack at Kempton he turned in his best performance of the season when winning the Bet at BlueSQ.com Hcp over 7f. This was a 5th win of the season for the 3yo grey son of Dubawi owned by
Andrew Tinkler. In what was a competitive handicap ran at a decent pace the progressive Iron Step ,up 5lbs in the weights always held a good position under
Luke Morris and led a furlong out to hold on well for a 1/2 length victory.

The stable ran
Questionnaire at Ayr on a fine sunny afternoon but she could not follow up her recent wins at Windsor and Chepstow.
11 July 2011
Inde Country, owned and bred by
Swanlow Stud broke well from stall 2 and was up with the pace all the way before being driven out by
James Doyle to easily hold the consistent Johnny Hancocks by 3/4length. This was a much improved performance from "Pancake" and she must like it at Wolverhampton as she had finished 2nd here back in January.
